does the xbox needs to be modded? if i put the hard drive in the xbox it does not read it. if i plug it in via usb it sees it? tried two different xbox's
I HAD My XBox since child and on my 21's never thought that this drive was just a normal 2.5" hard drive dude I'll save money to buy one at 7200 rpm to increase my experience
Pretty much I cracked the plastic shell open with a tool like a spudger or screwdriver. Don't remember. Inside there's just the normal drive. But be careful cause the plastic can get sharp.
I have James, i have question regarding the xbox upgrade process, since it has USB ports, can it read games through a SSD?Secondly, are there are constraints on HDD soace?
Thank you for this amazing tutorial. Now does it indicate that the 500GB HDD limitation becomes an urban tale? Any specific models of HDD for compatibility？I checked most dealers on Taobao and they only sale WD blue 1TB or 2TB, which means other non-genuine brands or models dont match Xbox 360 ?
Model wise I'm not sure. I'm assuming some community out there likely has a compatibility list. As for drive size, atleast with my rgh system a 1tb drive has been fine.
@@Breezyyyy__ My 360 Slim is not modified in anyway, and no jtag either. I currently play Halo 3/Reach Xbox Live on 360 for the remaining year. It's pure RGH.
here's a question, will this work with an ordinary unmodded 360? i heard people have trouble booting up their 360s when they install new hard drives, especially the ones that are more than 500GB.
Yes and no. A stock 360 will only allow certain (VERY specific) drives to be fully utilized. The RGH mod allows nearly any 2.5in drive (2tB and below) to be used.
Can't get the original 360 to read a 500 gb brand new hard. Any tips? I've tried formatting it as fat 32, but it will only read it as a USB drive when connected to an adaptor, not as a hard drive when connected through the top. :/
@@AxelStone there's some videos on it, you shave off some seconds off your load times, maybe for some games.. but as OP said, your SSD is not the issue, the actual motherboard and hardware will bottleneck your SSD, i would just put a large-ass HDD and jailbreak your XBox360
@@lordcanti I would still like to get an SSD for my Xbox 360 because they're less prone to breaking down over time than HDDs are. Do you happen to know which internal SSDs are compatible with 360, and which I can buy knowing that it will work?
I'm doing a Speedrun category on 360 for Destiny which requires an Xbox 360 hard drive to run and it doesn't have support for USB. Using an SSD would help me significantly so I tried taking a 2.5 in SSD and sticking the sata connection together without any sort of caddy and it didn't even recognize my ssd as a storage device. Is this normal or do you think my 360 it's messed up somehow
I’m sure there’s an answer on here already but is it possible to just put a normal hdd in a normal Xbox 360 not modded and what hard drive do I need to do it this way? I have a lot of western digital hard drives which from what I gather you need.
Ho there, Im just about to RGH an Xbox 360 phat with falcon and I'm going to do this, but I also read several weeks ago - something about upto a 16TB external drive can be used ??? Now I have a spare 4tb external and was wondering do you know anything about this?
Yes.I am running 2tb externals on mine.Mine are the standard seagate ones you find at walmart for like $60 a piece.I run the exact same ones on my Xbox One X and they work great for it as well.What I'm curious about is if it can run a 500gb ssd internally?
Please change video TITLE, you have to say it's RGH Modded in the title..It coul be confused for people looking for a guide about upgrading HDD on a Retail console (not modded..).
@@at-cj2iy Hmm, you sure? I don't remember that being a thing, internally at least, you needed to use some xbox 360 hdd maker and it HAD to be 60, 120, 250, or 500gb format.
@DARK__KING no issues that I can remember. Then again it's been years since I did this. I still have this same hdd in my 360 and it seems to work fine.
@@Breezyyyy__ is there a software u have to use to program it for the xbox it wont appear when i took the old one out and put new new in kinda like the og xbox if so please reply with a link to one
Would I need to copy aurora over to the new hard drive?? And what do you mean by internal memory card, do you mean just a USB thumbstick or does the xbox 360 have another internal memory that I'm unaware of?
The xbox 360 E has a internal 4gb flash memory which is separate from the hard drive. If you are running aurora from the old hard drive and not the internal flash memory then yeah it would need to be migrated. However I don't have mine setup like this so prob best to read the aurora guides out there for the process to use.
