Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Gadgets & Tech Xbox hard drive question

Hi guys,

I`ve sold an xbox to a mate and he`s asked me if i can put xbmc on it, mine already has this on it.

Could i just open them up, remove the hard drives, connect them to my pc and copy the data over (after partitioning etc..)?

dunno

Xbox media center

Here

My xbox thinks its a 360,lol
plays jpg, divx, avi, xvid, dvd, mp4 etc, control the fan speed, control the lights on the front, copy games to the hard drive, plays neo-geo, arcade, snes, nes, megadrive, atari, loads of features.

afaik, xboxes use standard ide hard drives, not sure about the file format though if its readable through pc?

Even if it would work, I dont think it may transfer all the files, may be hidden or system ones required or something may need installing?

I dunno, I dont even own an xbox, but tis what I think lol

how did you get it on in the first place?

i bought it like that joe, wierd thing is, its never been opened??? so the only way i can think its been done is via the ethernet socket or usb hooked up to a pc.

where did u buy it? if u bought it from a person, there no way of askin them, maybe u could try on the xbox forums see if anyone can help u out if nobody can here

yeah i`ll have to check the xbox forums


thanks anyway guys
