Xbox Live Arcade games linked to gamertag or hard drive?

My Xbox 360 recently got E73. It's still under warranty, but I'd rather have the new Xbox 360 Slim. So I want to sell this Xbox 360 to get money for the Slim.

However, not too sure if I should include the HDD with my 360 or not.

1. Are Xbox Live Arcade games, DLC, and whatnot linked to my gamertag or my HDD?
- For example, if I sell my HDD will someone be able to recover their gamertag on it and play the Arcade games I have on it? Or will they not be able to since I downloaded them on my gamertag?

2. If I sell the HDD, can I just re-download all my Arcade games and Rock Band DLC that I purchased? Or would it just be easier to transfer everything over?
- I want to avoid transferring everything over if I can, I'd rather re-download... but, I had a lot of stuff on my HDD. Of 120GB, I think all I have left now is about 15GB.
