Does anyone know if it possible to install an existing hard drive into another Xbox system? My Xbox with a larger hardrive no longer powers on and wanted to install it in another Xbox without altering its f and g partitions.
Wait so only certain drives work…😢 i already bought a 2tb ssd and flashed the origins image to it. Just waiting on my hard mod chip to come. Hopefully it works
@@Anthonyelmio2 i already ordered a stellar chip with hd+. Kinda wack. Cause i ordered Wednesday morning and paid extra for the 1 business day shipping as im off work this weekend. But that thing is still awaiting carrier pickup. So much for paying xtra huh
@erick1076 I am not familiar with that mod, but I soft moded my 1.0 Xbox, and I have no mod chips at all The only thing I did was the save hack with Tony hawk 4, put a 2tb hdd with a 80 cable and recapped it and put new thermal paste years ago and now I just re soft nodded it from rocky to Cerbios
@@Anthonyelmio2 would i need any files moved over from my stock hdd or could i just unlock it and the. drop the ssd right with the already flashed origins image?
Question: why couldn't you just put the original drive into an enclosure, and the clone the data from the OG drive to the SSD? It seems much easier. Or am I missing something?
I mostly see 2TB drives installed in modded consoles. Western Digital Blue or SanDisk are good brands, but SSDs get pretty pricey at that capacity and the throughout of storage is bottlenecked, meaning the drive can operate faster than the system will allow it to, leaving performance on the table. So unless you're going for less power consumption, a 7200RPM HDD using the same techniques in the video will work just as well for less than half the price. The emulation the OG XBOX is capable of probably wouldn't take up more than a few GB and people have claimed fitting the entire XBOX library as isos onto a 2TB drive. If you're only going to put a small library of your favorite old games on the drive or don't mind deleting stuff to make room and transfer later, you can get away with a 512GB or 1TB drive and save a bit of money. Videos would be another story, but it's more sensible to host videos on another device and stream them to the xbox over the network.
Can i upgrade my xbox classic with an 120gb patriot burst ssd without problems and lockable/unlockable? did anyone work with this ssd in a xbox classic? i want to use a startech ide to sata and 80 pin ide cable to realize this upgrade
Didn't know it was possible to install ssd. Would have been great maybe 10 years ago or so but at this point I would rather wait on a official Xbox mini console.
I found it fun project to do, one that I've been meaning to do for quite a long time, a xbox mini would be great, but I can't really see that coming, we'll in the near future anyway
