how hard is it to instal a 120gb hard in the xbox?
is it harder than installing one in a pc?

Get a chip or tsop get a dashboard then slayers then go to build hdd plug in the new one and then ur good to go. Sure there is a lil more but its pretty easy

It's pretty damn easy just put it in and reformat using the auto installer or whatever way you want to do it.

It gets easier every month, haha. They now have so many ways to do it. But yes i'd go with slayers or if you have xenium use the xenium OS for drives under 137gigs. Give it another couple of months and they will have a blow up robot for 10 dollars that will do it for you

Its easier than getting a mod chip.

Plug the HD in like you would in a PC, then boot with a bootable disc (namely Slayers Evox) and you are in business!

Not only is it easy - it's definitly worth it!

slayer's slayer's slayer's. check out x-disk. installs a lot more stuff and uses newer software. slayer's isn't the only auto installer.

nice to know but i ment like taking my box apart and and phisically installing it.

do i have to mess around with any screws or stuff?

Use link in my sig to tuts!!!

it's extremely easy dude. once you open your xbox it is pretty self explanitory. just unscrew some stuff, unplug some stuff. there are 6? screws inside you will have to worry about, and 6 outside. the hard drive is right on top and the first to come out though.

Alright dudes thanks.

Hey hows a 120gb for u guys how manny games or dvd games can i put on there.

OF COURSE MY BACKED GAMES AND DVDS

hey if i take out my xbox hard drive and put in a new in the xbox can i use the orginal hard of the xbox and stick it in my pc?

With all this talk of slayers, mind if I ask what exactly they are? Also, if I put a 120GB 7200RPM, would it overheat? Would I need to do a 12v fan mod (w/e that is)?

i thot it would be kind of hard, but i just installed a 160gb myself and it was easy... although, im not sure if i formatted it right so it would recognize the full 160 gigs..

-merc

It's easy to install the new drive. Just find a good tutorial and stick to it.

on my 120, i have about 15 games and 70 movies, and still room for more!

yes, you can put the xbox hard drive in your pc after you buy a new one.

slayers is an auto installer. you pop it in the cd and it formats the new hard drive and installs evox and apps.

no, it should not overheat. the 12v fan mod is very loud. you can set the percentage of the fan in the bios. (it's normally at 20%, i use 30%)

any more questions?

Hey,

I was just wondering if I've got it straight here to do a couple mods. Im gonna list what I think Ive gotta do and someone tell me if i'm wrong...

1. Install my Executer 2.3b Lite+ chip

2. Flash my chip using the cd I made (what is the latest bios??)

3. Make an Evox Dasboard boot cd.

4. Get my Evox dashboard up and running...

At this point my xbox box is fully capable of FTPing and playing my backup copys of games...

Now if I wanted to install a new hard drive I would proceed to these steps...

5. FTP your xbox and back up your old hard drive.

6. Take out the old hard drive.

7. Install your new hard drive.

8. Pop in a Slayers auto installer and we are back to normal except with a bigger HD.

Does slayers install the evox dashboard, also what aplications does it put on???

Thanks, any help is apreciated.

Can anyone give me some feed back on my post please...

i put in my 120 gig and formated it in like 10 min.
the formating was easy. i did it through ftp

Installing my new hd was a lot easier than installing my modchip i thought. Took about 4 hours for the modchip to be completely up and running, about 30 minutes for the hd to be completely up and running.

Thats what im talkig about THanks

Hey guys now i need a tutoriol.

Please

Anyone know a good tutorial site? Like video and stuff thxs

seriously, installing a new hard drive is the easiest mod if done with slayers. you want a tuitorial? download slayers and download the slayers tuitorial. it's so damn simple a fetus could do it! (don't know what made me think of that)
