can you use accessories (ie HDD) from an x360 pro with an arcade version?

my little brother in law had his x360 stop working (laser on dvd drive) ... and I'm debating trying to fix it for him (~$50 + I've never done it), have the local shop do it (~$75-100) or just let his parents buy him a new arcade version ($200). Obviously I'm more inclined to recommend the last option, but will his HDD work with it? and shit, is there really no HD hook up for it?

IIRC all you have to do with an arcade is pull the plastic side cover part off to be able to connect a HDD. Basically the cover just stays on for looks and keeping dust out otherwise.
