HddHackr 1.11 is great with Auto flashing mode. I dont need to do hexing too. I dont even know what it for, maybe for someone who got problem? I manage to do the mod with WD3200BEVT. Ya i know its way too big sweat.gif I dont care..hehe. Most fully i just follow the on screen instructions with HddHackr 1.11. It is easier than the 1st page shows here.

I hope the "250gb Super Elite" is true so i can upgrade the HDD again later thumbup.gif

Is this will affect us?

Don’t use unauthorized Xbox 360 Storage Devices

...or it is just the unauthorized MU? Datel memory card?

From other forum...
QUOTE
it was said by a MS spokesman, this was only for 3rd party unauthorized memorycards.... unauthorized HDD's should be fine (got a link from someone last night in #fw but don't have it anymore)
Hope its true... sweat.gif

A Microsoft spokesman confirmed this morning via email that this particular move is targeted at memory units that plug into the front of the console, not unauthorized hard drives.

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?
*
Happened to me too before. I give up waiting and stop it. Put it back to xbox and delete cache and after that it goes very well fast.

Congrats to you.

Well just found out that the new update doesn't lock out home made hdd. So its still safe to use.
*

Well, yes for the preview program. Hopefully the official release update later also didnt block hacked HDD too wink.gif

Ya, not that hard after all. I dont have to do the hexing said on the 1st page, thank god. I dont even know what it is for. Maybe the latest HDDHackr doesnt need it thumbup.gif

Flashing WD HDD part is easy. Backup/transfer files from old HDD to new one is what some troublesome sweat.gif

For the official MS 120GB, u can just plug and play.

hi ya, Lakum, thanks for the reply, do you have step by step insrtuction on how you are able to flash your hard drive? I have check from youtube, it seem like we need special torque driver to open the hard disk casing right?

Thanks for the help smile.gif
*
U can just follow the tutorial here at the 1st page. Maybe u need to skip few parts with the new HDDHackr. Mainly for the flashing part u can just follow the HDDHackr on screen option. And yes u need torx screwdriver to open the case, also mention at the 1st page.

Few notes, u need Xplorer360 extreme2 to copy files from ur old hdd, but to transfer the files back to the new flashed 250gb, u need the patch Xplorer360 for 250gb. I'm sure u can look around on the net and i'm sorry coz i dont have a proper tutorial to give it to u.
