Plug My Banned Xbox360 Hdd To New Modded Xbox360, just want to make sure Options

[VinorGouki]

hi everyone,

i'm new here. i had read the Banning FAQs about:
Q: If I have been banned, can I plug my harddrive into another Xbox360?
A: Yes, your Xbox360 has been banned not your account or your storage device.

ok, i just want to make sure. if i plug my old hdd to another MODDED Xbox360 and go online just to download new xbl arcade game, will i get ban directly? i scare my old hdd got my old banned console information, does it?

Anytime you mod any system you violate the TOS of the manufacturer.

So what this means if you put your harddrive from the banned system on another modded 360, then you risk being banned.

This question has been answered already.

Not to be mean, but do a search before posting because the moderators on here can ban you from here if you do not search before posting.

There is no way to tell how M$ is banning right now.

I am in the process of trying one theory. I am going to go on live with just originals after waiting 1 week of just connecting to live and downloading arcade trial games and playing them offline single player, then after this week if I still not banned, then I am going to play original games only on live to see if I get banned.

Option 1 - If I get banned, then I know for sure they can detect the firmware being modded, not a backup or for those who play early releases will also know it is the firmware not the bad backups or early release of games.

Option 2 - If they do not ban me, then it is probably going to be bad backups or early releases of nonoriginal games that causes the bannings lately.

I hope that my theory is proven to be option 2 and I do not get banned, but if I do get banned, I am not going to cry because all I use live for is arcade games (I play offline only) and movies.

So time will tell, but for now all I am doing each day is connecting to live and just downloading trial games and playing them offline.

Then in 1 week I will play original games online only.

We will see then exactly if M$ is detecting just the firmware.

I surely wish C4Eva will post on here what his thoughts are.

If you take the hard disk over to a non-modded unit you are not at any risk however you are still at risk if the new console has modifications that may get you banned but your hard disk doesn't carry any info that leads to banning.

No one gets banned for not searching, but they do for multiple accounts, jackattack_200897 aka theonecsm34, and theonecsm35.

Your question is already answered in this very topic.

[xark]

thx for reply but...
answer is from modded to modde and my second xbox will be not modded
and what "this account is banned" mean? why account and not console? what is difference?
thank you

[StrictPuppet]

Dont worry about it. You can swap hdd's back and forth all you want.

They do mean console when they say account. They have changed the wording with the new dash, and it incorrectly says account. The status codes tell you all you need to know. If the z code says, Z : 8015 190D, then the console is banned, doesn't matter what the text tells you.
