Xbox Live Gold on Xbox 360 Flash Drive

So I got the 16GB Xbox 360 Licensed SanDisk flash drive. It works fine but I heard that it comes with 1 Month of Xbox Live Gold. When I tried to play something that required Gold, it said I didn't have it. I also checked my Profile and it said that I had
a Free Membership. Is there Gold/how do I get the Gold? My console is 4GB.

:)

 

Please tell me this is a sick joke

You need a 16 gb USB flash drive. It MUST have sufficient read speed 15mb/s

"This initial install will require an Xbox 360 Hard Drive or an external 16GB USB flash drive with at least 8 GB of free space. If using a USB flash drive it must be at least USB 2.0 with a minimum 15mb/s read speed and formatted for Xbox 360 use. A new USB flash drive is recommended to ensure optimum performance. "

Question About USB Flash Drive

Yes, you can configure any USB Flash Drive (up to 16GB) into an Xbox 360 Memory Unit & save anything downloaded from Xbox LIVE..

Plug your USB Flash Drive into your Xbox 360, go to; "System" on your Console Dashboard, select; "Storage".. Press A, on "Configure Device" & you are ready to save files to you USB Flash Drive..

 

I've never heard of memory sticks coming with gold memberships. Consoles, however, come with 3 separate 1 month gold trial memberships.

These can be accessed by creating a brand new account on the console and taking advantage of the offer when it pops up.

 

It says on here www.xbox.com/.../storage that it comes with 1 Month of Gold. This is for the 8GB though not the 16GB so I'm not sure if this also goes for the 16GB.

If there isn't any Gold for the 16GB then it's fine. I'll just buy one.

 

It does say that the pre-configured 8 gb storage device comes with it. Perhaps you're right that it is only included with that size.
