Fawrkes
I have a 20 gb hard drive (xbox 360), and i want to put all my data on a 60gb one, how do I do that? What do I need?
What do I do if I want to copy the data? Is that possible?
Answer
To successfully transfer your data from one Xbox 360 Hard Drive to another Xbox 360 Hard Drive, you must have the following components:
. Xbox 360 console
. Two Xbox 360 Hard Drives
. The data transfer cable
. The data transfer software
Important If you want to transfer your saved games and other content from your existing hard drive (the source drive) to a different hard drive (the destination drive), do not attach the destination drive to your Xbox 360 console until you have transferred the contents of the source drive according to the instructions in this section. Any content that you stored on the destination hard drive before the content transfer will be lost.
Transfer content from your existing Xbox 360 Hard Drive
You have the option to perform a one-time transfer of all content from your existing Xbox 360 Hard Drive (source drive) to another Xbox 360 Hard Drive (destination drive). Whether you decide to do this or not, understand that both drives are fully compatible with your Xbox 360 console and will be after the transfer is completed.
Important Content can only ever be moved from a smaller source drive to a destination drive that is the same size or larger and only one time. For example, the following hard drive pairings allow transfer from source to (">") destination:
20GB > 20GB
20GB > 60GB
20GB > 120GB
60GB > 60GB
60GB > 120GB
120GB > 120GB
Note If you intend to move content from an existing hard drive, such as your 20GB hard drive, to a new destination hard drive, such as to a 60GB hard drive, do not use the destination hard drive before you perform this procedure or you will lose whatever content that you have previously put on that destination drive.
When the transfer is complete, the destination drive will contain all transferable files from the source drive. This includes your saved games and Xbox LIVE downloads. Additionally, the destination drive will contain its preloaded content. The contents of the source drive will be erased.
If you resume use of the source drive after the transfer, be aware that you will not have another opportunity to transfer content directly to your other hard drive. For an easy, portable way to move your saved games or your Xbox LIVE membership between hard drives or to take them with you wherever you go, try the Xbox 360 Memory Unit. The Xbox 360 Memory Unit is sold separately.
Apart from this one-time option to transfer all content to your new hard drive, you cannot copy or move items directly from one hard drive to another, regardless of drive capacity. To copy or move items after the one-time transfer, use the Xbox 360 Memory Unit. Except as detailed in the following procedure, only one hard drive may be connected to your console at a time. The transfer cable cannot be used to transfer data from more than one hard drive or to connect multiple hard drives to your console at the same time.
Note As with any data-transfer process, there is a risk that some or all data may become lost during the transfer process. If you continue with the data-transfer process, you do this at your own risk. Additionally, you agree that Microsoft is not liable for any loss of data that results from the transfer process.
Steps to transfer your content from one Xbox 360 Hard Drive to another Xbox 360 Hard Drive
1. Turn off your Xbox 360 console with your existing hard drive (the source drive) still attached.
2. Disconnect all accessories from the Xbox 360 console's controller ports.
3. Turn on your Xbox 360 console. Connect and turn on a controller. You will need a controller during content transfer.
4. Connect one end of the transfer cable to the destination drive.
5. Connect the other end of the transfer cable to the Xbox 360 console's rear USB port.
Important Make sure that you connect the transfer cable to the back port on your Xbox 360 console. Do not connect the transfer cable to a port on the front of your Xbox 360 console.
6. Insert the included Hard Drive Transfer Disc into your Xbox 360 console's disk tray. Instructions appear on the screen.
Attach and remove your Xbox 360 Hard Drive
If you are already using a 20GB or a 60GB Xbox 360 Hard Drive, see the "Transfer content from an existing Xbox 360 Hard Drive" section before you attach your new hard drive. If you will not be transferring content from another hard drive, your new hard drive is ready to use immediately.
Attach your Xbox 360 Hard Drive
1. Turn off your Xbox 360 console.
2. Remove the hard drive bay cover from your console.
3. Put the hard drive over the hard drive bay with the thin end pointed toward the front of your Xbox 360 console and the thick end pointed toward the back of your Xbox 360 console.
4. Put the back of the hard drive against the back of the hard drive bay. Make sure that the ridge along the back of the hard drive rests underneath the lip on the back of the hard drive
