Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
Just so anyone who has been following along with the thrilling saga so far has an ending, I bought another dirt cheap XBOX and got the sucker to work with my 1TB drive. It's transferring games by FTP as we speak. So pumped to get started with this thing.

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
Did you back up the eeprom ? If not make sure it's the first thing you do next time and then you can fix things easily with that . I lost it when I built a new PC and wiped a drive. I still have my Wii and 3DS NAND backups but I didn't save the Xbox's EEPROM for some reason. Oh well, lots of lesson...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
Well, I don't have a great update...I dropped the original xbox IDE drive onto the carpet from about four feet up and now when I put it back together, I get error code 07, which means the HDD times out. So now my xbox is probably borked because I was working off of softmod and I don't know how to re...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
I'll look up more into this process. Just kind of blows my mind that the original tutorial just completely doesn't mention that. I guess this guide was written for people who are VERY knowledgeable of this process and not for newcomers.

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
To lock a drive, is that where the AID and Slayer auto installers come in? The tutorial doesn't mention anything about locked drives but I've seen several that do mention that step. I'll read up more about it but I do not understand what locking a drive means.

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
Sorry I haven't used a Sata drive with the converter thing before so best leave that to someone else . Are you soft mod or mod chip ? If chip , you will just pop it in and boot up a disc like HeXen Rocky5s or Slayers etc and set it up . If softmod , things are a little more complex . I'm a softmod....

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
You mentioned "move it to the correct position" and is that master or slave position?
Also, will the HDD boot up with only the AID disc or can I test it with a game disc to see if everything is working first before I format it?

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
There should be a picture on the hdd to guide you ; you will see some little pins on the same side of the hdd as the cable goes and there is a little plastic bridging thing in there , use a pair of tweezers or something to take it out and move it to the correct position . Also worth trying the old ...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
Did you mean you have a 1TB drive? Yes, sorry. 1 TB drive. The LED lights on the kingston adapter turn on but with the game inside the drive, the xbox goes right to the error screen. Do I need to prep the old drive, have them both plugged in, or anything else I'm obviously missing? Or is my WD driv...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial
Something I'm confused about here is with the initial physical installation of the new drive. I have a 1GB WD SATA drive with the kingston adapter and an 80 pin IDE cable. I removed the old drive, put in the new cable, and attached the new drive. I had a real copy of Dead or Alive 3 in the drive and...
