Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 16, 2016 Use the Microsoft Xbox 360 HD transfer data Cable. Its the safest way. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FaTaLiiTYz 56 Posted August 16, 2016 Use the Microsoft Xbox 360 HD transfer data Cable. Its the safest way. I thought of that pal but here is my concern: there is 1 tb of data and as it transfers it deletes from the host drive and if a problem arises i may loose whatever it has already transferred. Or am i wrong? regards. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 16, 2016 Yeah you can only move your datas between your Xbox 360 Hds, but not copy. If something get wrong in the copy Process, you probable lost your Games/Data. A further possibility is, to connect your Xbox 360 HD to your PC, and use a Program like party buffalo drive explorer, to copy your needed stuff.

From my experience party buffalo usually freezes on large files, I guess we both think alike lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 16, 2016 There are still other programs with same functions. I had never problems to move/copy my data with programs, Ftp, or HD transfer cable. But sure, you can have always bad luck. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swizzy 2083 Posted August 16, 2016 You should be able to use the HD Transfer cable and Aurora... if memory serves me right, that kit shows up as a separate device, this would allow you to copy the contents from it... just like you would with anything else... Obviously tho, you'll probably need to run a secondary instance of Aurora (from USB) to avoid any file locks (make sure you unload the FSD Plugin aswell if you started from the HDD first) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 16, 2016 @DarkXorCist They are some other programs like, UsbXtaf & Fatxplorer. But they are old and not all functions in Fatxplorer are unlocked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr.Gonzo 392 Posted August 16, 2016 I have no idea. It's been a long time, as I used these programs. For most copy operations, the HD Cable and Aurora be enough for me. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lev 32 Posted August 18, 2016 Does the Aurora FTP server support FXP? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FaTaLiiTYz 56 Posted August 20, 2016 So i finally migrated all my data to my larger HD and what an hassle it was. I mainly used Fatxplorer and integrated the drive into windows to copy because party buffallo would not work with any of my HD's over 1TB. I have one niggling problem if anyone can help... Its just one arcade game called "Game Room". It shows up in my xbox 360 catagory and it should be in XBLA section. I have altered the content database for others that was like this but for some reason Game Room will not move to XBLA section. I believe i have done the settings right. I did the settings correctly on the 1TB i just upgraded from without issues. I have re installed aurora a few times as fresh copies and re done the scan paths etc but for some reason i cannot get it shifted to my XBLA catagory. I would really appreciate some help with this.

lev 32 Posted August 30, 2016 No, it only handles the FTP protocol I tried it with local FXP using flashfxp & it seems to work fine. I will try with multiple systems & report back but I expect it to work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Su1cid@lM0nk3y 8 Posted August 30, 2016 I recently assisted a colleague with migrating from 250GB internal (retail xbox drive) to 1TB internal - the programs that worked well for me was: Xplorer360-250gb ~ For transferring all the App/Game folders (the key was to run it as Admin - otherwise your Retail XBOX HDDs don't register) Horizon ~ For extracting & reimbedding the Gamer Profiles & TUs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gavin_darkglider 1562 Posted September 13, 2016 I can think of 4 ways to do this off the top of my head, without the transfer cable. 1. FTP the content to your computer, then copy it back when you install the new HDD. 2. Copy the content to a USB HDD, then copy it back to the new HDD. 3. take both HDDS that are formated for the xbox, and plug them into the computer, and use an xtaf program to extract/inject the files into the new HDD Filesystem. 4. Have 2 Jtag consoles, with XBDM configured as a DL plugin, and use Xbox360 Neighborhood(Requires a copy of the XDK on you computer.) to copy the data from one to the other. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
