Does your comp detect the drive? If yes, then you need to do some hexing to proceed.

i dun think u can flash ur hdd with USD to SATA

I think can. If my memory serve me right, I think someone in the net was able to do it. But I might be wrong. I remember reading it somewhere.

But I can be wrong also. icon_rolleyes.gif

ok..first of all.. my laptop dont detect the drive. (disk management didnt show any drive when i connect with it).
ermm.. one thing, when i read the tutorial, it says that u cant connect directly to sata port, is it means that we still need to use usb? did i miss anything? i'm sure the thing is not faulty since i'm using it with my external hdd.

Which tutorial said not directly to sata port? I suggest you tryng using a sata cable to test it out

Dude read the whole sentence. He says connecting it for the 2nd time. This is a rare effect but it's for connecting for 2nd time.

Well the only way to find out is wait for the update to come. I think mostly is targeted to memory units. The unofficial hdd hack is almost the same as the bin file that use to format the hdd

Well if the profile do corrupts, these will be bad for everyone becuase in eBay, many of them are selling this hdd and they consider them as official hdd at a cheap price.

So I think there will be chaos on the xbox market so it's hard to say.

To be safe, just backup your profile and your latest save game.

I started transferring the Partition 3 out to my PC hard disk, but the darn thing taking forever. Started the dump around 1 PM and now 8.5 hrs later still going on. I did not clear the cache because i did not think it will really take so long.

Guys, any advice, should I interrupt it or continue to wait?
*
You cant dump everything 1 shot. You got to dump like 3-5 files at once. Otherwise, it wont work at all eventhough it show there is progress.

Hi Navigator,

What is the initial hdd space you have immediatley after you upgrade your new 250GB HD? Coz, Saw your screenshot it shown only 223GB ?
*
Because partly is use MS and xbox so thats why it doesn't exactly show you 250gb.

ask Navigator he use BEVT or BEVS

some1 else got it 2 work on BEVT

The new hddhackr can read bevt so it's not a problem. The new xplorer can also read the new hdd without using the hexedit.
