Full Version: Fast Hdd Upgrade Question
i take it you modded your box, but kept the stock HD in it, but now you regret that and decided to go for a larger HD.
if you have anything on your stock HD that you consider important/would like to have on your new HD, back it up onto your computer. and while you're at it, back up your EEPROM for safety. i would probably back up my gamesaves.
once you install your new drive, all you have to do is format it with Slayer's or X-disk or something and load all your custom apps and things back on. don't your gamesaves too

Well i just got done dropping the chip in, ive got everything back to normal except the new hd, im just wondering where i should go from there.
Unless you want your gamesaves/music, no, you don't need anything from your other hard drive. You'll just need a boot disk that can format this new hard drive and install all the dashboards and applications.

Well this worked out better theb i thought it would, X3 + 120 gb hd installed with no issues, i used Slayers to format and install the apps i needed to the new hd. Working well so far
Thanks for the help
