Xbox 360 HDD

[Pheee]

T0mbi, just get a Microsoft Memory unit, you could get second hand, or new, for Fable 2, its only 8mb save files, so you could borrow one from a friend if possible, or get a second hand on, or ebay, and as you are in AUS, surely you can get them from Hong Kong, they have cheap fakes...

[Lingwo]

What!? My Fable 2 save is duff as well. I was hoping to grab the DLC and be minted and overpowered :p

Luckly my brother has a memory card so i could use that.

[t0mbi]

can anyone else confirm that their rock band saves don't transfer as well?

[Lingwo]

My Rock Band 2 save doesn't work either. It says it doesn't match the storage device.

[Pheee]

I like how reponses to my Fable 2 experience, and getting a memory card to move it, people were saying it was fine for them, but they never tried their saves...

I believe there are restrictions that can be placed on a save file, so some files cannot be copied, some files cannot be copied or moved. When you move the file to another device, the xbox will resign that file to work from the other storage device.

[t0mbi]

yeah i think they are talking about their fable 2 data in general...not their saves

games saves that don't work when you make your own HDD

rock band 1 and 2

fable 2

too human

forza 2

anymore we know of?

[Pheee]

Hexic 2, although I just deleted them, hahaha. As I dont see much point in saving my level 3 marathon...

When I copied my drive, I tested every game I had, so I could also list what does work at some point.

[t0mbi]

Pheee if you could that would be awesome

So is anyone willing to help me out? I do not have access to a computer with a SATA port on it at this time. Go figure :p I was wondering if anyone in the US would be nice enough to help me out by doing the flash and everything for me? I can put it in the case no problem I just dont have the ability to do this and I am not going to spend 150+ to do it. If anyone is willing to help me please contact me by PM so we can discuss this :) Thanks in advance!

[Pheee]

NoLimit I would have helped ya out, but sadly im in UK, I hope someone can help ya, it is a great save in expense.

Good Luck.

[NoLiMiT06]

I am not sure about international shipping I am sure that it is not expensive but thanks and I hope someone is willing as well :D

[nomis_nehc]

How much stuff do you have on the old hard drive that needs to be backed up? I suppose I could consider...

[NoLiMiT06]

Honestly I dont need anything backed up, I was just going to put what I want on my memory card. :) I just need a 120 formated and tested :D Again just shot me a PM so we can discuss it :) Thanks bro!

[nomis_nehc]

Wells, send me a PM and let me know what you have in mind. I suppose if nothing needs to be backed up, it's fairly simple and straight forward.

[NoLiMiT06]

Thanks, PM sent ;)

Taking the plunge today. Is it supposed to take aaaages to extract partition 3? I've deleted all my unnecessary content so that there should be only 7gb of actual content on partition 3. Should it really take long than an hour for it to 'extract'?

The application seems to have issues extracting the whole of partition 3 at once.

Try doing individual folders.

[troGGers]

Thanks! Seems to be working. Also, do I need to copy the "Cache" folder?

[t0mbi]

i didnt copy my cache folder.and every time i play a game on live, it asks my to download an update, that's about it, so it doesn't really matter

[troGGers]

Everything went smoothly...pretty sweet. :D

[Rookas]

I'm about to buy a 120. I just bought a new arcade and I'm using my 20 GB from my Pro. I was going to buy an elite but I decided that it's not only cheaper, but a better value to go the route I'm going since the Jaspers aren't in the elites yet. In the end I should have a Jasper mobo 360 with a 120 GB HDD for around $350 USD.

[troGGers]

Silly Rock Band 2 and it's game saves. I suppose I'll pick up a memory card since I don't have anyone local that has one. :-/

[gigatexel]

I swapped my friends 20 gig drive for the 120 WD Scorpio. The Xplorer360 program is buggy but the entire process was incredibly easy to do. (Y)
