Re: Dual SATA Dock with Offline Clone
I'm very close to doing my own speed tests on this. Will post with pictures from Crystal Disk Mark of the two drives I'm using and then time the transfer. Still need to get my source drive dialed. Been slow. My OCD nature has me picking some of the total crap out of CoinOps first (replacing incomple...

Re: back to noob status questions
Thankyou, wasn't aware of that. I'll have to seek out that zip and the related tools. When I launch CoinOps from xbmc, and vice versa, I actually re-launch PBL to change the default dash so when I exit anything it brings me back to what I launched from. So I might bake in the settings on a bfm iND b...

Re: back to noob status questions
Just did a test with x2.5035 . Seems to be even better for SATA drives. More patient. EvoxM8 always gave me an error 7 if I did a reboot from within XBMC or CoinOps. x2.5035 seems to have a longer tolerance in waiting for the sata bridge to become ready. Unfortunately I need BFM (boot from media) ve...

Re: back to noob status questions
My lab box is doing a rather large FTP transfer for a while but I'll fire up the x5035 bios tomorrow night before I start the next transfer. Problem with leaving them as ISO is that 4GB file size limit of FatX and the hoops you have to go through to get things to work. I've only caught reference a t...

Re: back to noob status questions

What is the best bios i can put on 3 of them to make sure i can install a 2tb sata hard drive (using the red sata adaptor mentioned in the other post here) and run games off the hdd in iso format? I've he...

Re: Scored another xbox
That there is indeed a Red XCM case. I have a Blue one. Had a red one once, kinda want to get it back from the guy I gave it too. Have Autobot and Decepticon jewels I got from llamma back in the day. Haven't worked up the nerve to punch the top of my blue case for the Decepticon jewel, but I'm almos...

Re: Best practice: Softmod and HDD change
I tried a source on amazon for IDE drives, GoHardDrive I think it was. Most reputable dealer on Amazon for hard drives but I think that's mostly based on their fast response to return requests. Bought three from them. First two were Dead on arrival. Third died a slow death. Won't put up with that ag...

Is there a market here for motherboards?
I'm very much in the preliminary stages on this but I'm wondering if there's still a market for replacement motherboards as I may end up with some extras once I'm done. All would be 1.0 to 1.4-1.5, Clock Caps removed if needed, HDD Key Zeroed, and TSOPed with EvoxM8 so you can take a HeXEn disc and ...

Re: Wtb ghostcase
eBay shows by region. I think you need to open your results internationally somehow, though most result I see only want to ship to the continental U.S., just like ghostcase.com . I'm thinking that's the problem; eBay won't show results that won't ship to your area. Just keep looking periodically, th...

Re: Wtb ghostcase
Seems to be plenty on eBay now, but we may not be in the same country. Production may be ceasing. Looked on the ghostcase website and now the only color available is red. That's how the much loved XCM cases went. Only color left in their final days was red.

Re: ssd
By that you mean just an ssd in an Xbox? A dream of mine to put a 2TB SSD in my personal box, but I like the performance of the 2TB notebook drive well enough that I'm happy with it for now.

Re: Best way to backup entire modded XBOX HDD
Problem with that is your softmodded. HDD Raw Copy Tool can make an image of it but you can't read the drive on any computer unless you unlock it. But then if you unlock it, there's the question of how to re-lock it. If you're softmodded and you have a 1.6 motherboard your best bet is a backup by wa...

Re: Dual SATA Dock with Offline Clone
Even at four hours that's averaging ~136MB/sec with hard drives on a device that doesn't supplement any buffer ram. Faster than the 49MB/sec the cloning software I'm using tops out at. My Inateck FD2002 arrived yesterday. Depending on my taxes I may get a 2TB drive soon to play with it. My 2TB sourc...

Re: Looking for Xenium Ice
I'm guessing from the United States cause of the term 'deployed'. Further guess west coast, like me, cause 'methheads', too. Not that these terms aren't used elsewhere, just more common over here. Also, thanks toxicmedz for that bit of info. Have an ICE chip that looks slightly different than my oth...

Re: Dual SATA Dock with Offline Clone
If the build quality is ok, should be fine. Check it for heat while under load. If it gets uncomfortably hot, swap it for something better. Good to have spares anyway.

Re: Dual SATA Dock with Offline Clone
I'd say go for it. When you get it, do take a look at the supplied power adapter for how many amps it's outputting. The Inateck supplies a 3 Amp adapter. That would probably handle a pair of green drives just fine, or a notebook/ssd & 3.5". Performance drives would take that adapter up to 6...

Re: Dual SATA Dock with Offline Clone
Nice. Price seems right for what it does even though there's a Red Flag on the offline cloning. There are limitations to this function as it can only clone to a drive of greater capacity than the source drive. This means cloning to a target drive that is the same capacity as the source drive is not ...
