    If you were to transfer only 1 branch of data or a certain profile, would the Xbox fat HDD unit still erase all data?

  • @AspyKid
    @AspyKid Před 12 lety +3

    For those who don't know, you should always put the usb transfer cable itself to the computer first before you could attach the hdd.

    If you cannot get this to work try to connect the cable in opposite way ( first connect the usb and only after that plug in the hard drive). Did work for me. I read that there are problems with old 20gb/10gb hard drives and sometimes you need to get some kind of software disc from Microsoft.

    Yes but it takes longer depending on how much data you are moving. Also, you need to format the usb on your Xbox before doing anything so that it can read the data properly.

    I doubt that it will be overwritten. It should have both the original 360 data and Slim's data on it. Assuming they are not under the same profile gt and settings, it should have both profiles without deleting anything. I could be wrong so you can always check the xbox website in case

    @andy salazar I have the same 360 Transfer cable that I used to transfer from my 20gb to my 120gb HDD's, hopefully I can use it once again to transfer to the new slim 250gb. If it works, I will have used it twice. So for people in situations similar to mine, we can and will have multiple uses for it. And who knows, you may (one day) upgrade your HDD more than once also.
