How to Transfer Content with an Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Kit

Sept. 22, 2009 - PRLog -- To Transfer Content from an Existing Xbox 360 20GB Hard Drive to your new Xbox 360 Elite console 120 GB Hard Drive, you need to:

- Turn off both of your consoles and remove the 120GB hard drive from your Xbox 360 Elite console as described in the Xbox 360 Setup manual (Volume 1).

- Attach your 20GB hard drive to your Xbox 360 Elite console, and then disconnect all accessories from the console's controller ports.

- Connect and turn on a controller, which you'll need during content transfer.

- Connect one end of the transfer cable to your 120GB hard drive.

- Connect the other end of the transfer cable to the rear USB port of your Xbox 360 Elite console.

Note:

Be sure to connect the transfer cable to the back port, not a port on the front of the console.

You have the option to perform a one-time transfer of content from a 20GB Xbox 360 hard drive to another Xbox 360 20GB or Xbox 360 120GB hard drive. Whether you choose to do this or not, understand that both hard drives are fully compatible with both your Xbox 360 console, and will be after the transfer, too. However, content can only ever be moved from the smaller drive only once.  The transfer kit cannot move content from the larger 120GB drive.
