the 120gb WD is a 2.5" or 3.5" ?

sata / ide ?

lol i also wan give this a try since ive got the NXE already

its awesome

thanks for the feedback
I will await your reply , cant wait to hear from you.

succeed is 1 criteria , but doing it is another

why buy a 160gb when it can only recognize 120gb

on top of that, a 120gb is cheaper

how about the 120gb hddss.bin thing which i read u gotta have from a xbox 360 120gb?

where can u obtain that ?

first i need to get a 160gb wd sata drive and then, a sata connector thanks to my ancient motherboard

btw, this also means downtime for ur xbox 20gb right, cause u are working on it together with the 120gb?

thinking of buying the hard disk today

which 1 should i get ?

160gb WD 2.5 ?

EDIT :

i saw this unit

Western Digital Scorpio WD1200BEVS 120GB 5400 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 1.5Gb/s Notebook Hard Drive

since we cant find BEVS, we can then use BEVT

since we cant find 120gb, we can use 160gb

so will WD 160 GB 5400 RPM SATA 8MB cache work ?

so which guides u all followed?

i just bought a 160gb bevs wd scorpio

lol

then i should have bought bevt or bevs ?
lol !!

crap

ok noted about the hddhackr

on another note, u used "Xplorer360 'extreme build 2' " or the other?

im going 2 go find a hddss.bin now

bought from ... where else, lowyat

there got sell 160gb 2.5" bevt and bevs

however wunan and mmxzero managed to with a bevt

i think bevs needs to do all that hex crap man, check out the guide for urself =.=''

gosh.. suicide*

count me in for that soon

ive downloaded all the required softwares needed for the upgrade
now i need some1's motherboard with sata support and run this crap

i read that the winhex needed registration?

ok looks like ill be using the winhex then instead of the hex workshop

btw, the hexagon shaped screw on the xbox hard disk... sigh, thats giving me a head ache... need to go get the tools

hope i dont bump into the same problem with a 1600 BEVS

=.=

now skeptical about my BEVS

lol

btw, the funny star shaped screw is a T6 , right ?

u copied my whole post -.-

ok thanks , i need 2 go out there and find this screwdriver man.. i dont have one... well i used to , now its missing..

hei guys

ive got a problem

my xbox has just formatted my 160GB to 107GB , no problems

now i slot in my 20GB into the PC

using xbox explorer 360 & extreme 2 doesnt not show anything

In this line

Within Xplorer360 click "Drive" then "Open" then "Hard Drive or Mem Card". It should take a few seconds and then pop up some partitions in the left hand window. (If it doesn't detect the drive, check the connections and also make sure that your SATA controller driver is properly installed.)

I can see the 20GB hard disk in windows but xbox 360 explorers cant
error returned : cant find a FATX
what do i do now? initialize the hard disk ?

i would guess that i need PROPER SATA drivers?

i think this machine is running some built in DELL crap..

in step 9 :

If it doesn't detect the drive, check the connections and also make sure that your SATA controller driver is properly installed

would u think this is it or do i Hex? i dont know what 2 hex. im on the 20Gb, not yet the 120GB hexing part (which is step 13)


EDIT ::

ERROR CODE ::
could not find a fatx drive to open

Solution on Vista ::
Right Click > Run as administrator

solved !

mmxzero, u might want to add this to your guide during step 9 / 13

one more thing i noticed on vista is that you cant drag and drop , so you have to manually figure out all the folders and inject them 1 by 1 into partition 3

oh well, this is what i had to do which took 2 hours + just for 1.5gb

but the job is done
