Xbox 360 with 3 hdds?

[DARk_ANGEL]

ok i was thinking of trying something that no one has tried to do or i havent seen around so i wanna know if i can put 3 hdd in my xbox

it sounds possible just  make 2 internal and one regular right?

i know i cant have them all running at the same time so i would need a switchs for 2 the internal ones so i can use the regular hdd but how would the wireing be?

would it be the same as wireing one hdd but have 2 sata cables and 2 sata to motex ? both wired up the same with swithes?

OH AND BY THE WAY IT NOT A JTAG

wouldn't it crash because of the fact the min u switch the system resets it self

[DARk_ANGEL]

you gotta turn the xbox off first

look say i have a hdd on top and 2 internal hdds if i wanted to use the regular hdd i need to make sure both switches are off and i can use it if i wanted to use one of the internal hdds i need to remove the top hdd the regular one so i can use any of the internal ones and make sure the other switch is off you get it?

but if i wire them up together the sata cable not the power it would work right only the  power needs switches?

I dont see why you cant have 3 hard drives for you xbox, look it shows up if you put one thru the usb transfer cable or memory card or even usb stick each hard drive would be reconized differently also when you play or save a game it ask you where do you want to save i


Sound right or not?

am I right or wrong?

[DARk_ANGEL]

do you mean use them as different places like i can have them all running but it will be seen as something else not a hdd? well 1 hdd and the other could be seen like for example a mem card? but would it have all the space it comes with?

[Rodent]

if you have a transfer cable and 2 hard drives it shows two hard drives, it doesnt know where its coming from just shows two hard drives or two memory cards if you have the mem cards pluged in. when you plung in a usb flash drive it shows a flash drive so , i think if you had an exxternal hard drives plugged in the usb's slots you could have 4 hard ddrives  one on the top normal place 2 out of front usbs and 4 th out the usb port in the back of the xbox.

I never tried it but I bet it will work.

[DARk_ANGEL]

sounds about right but how do you think i could wire that up

[Rodent]

First I would try it to make sure it works then there are ways to wire it up

[DARk_ANGEL]

so first get a transfer cable and try it with a hdd right

also one more thing i want it to save games and ect. i dont think it would do that it would just save songs and photos

[Rodent]

It might, never know till you try, what i would try is if you have a external hard drive plug that in to it and see if it reconized it, but I wouldnt use one you have computer stuff on. due to the fact you might have to format the drive for xbox 360 files. also you cant go any bigger then 250 gb that i know of. being a external drive might only register at 16 gb


I been wanting to test it out myself but havent had time to

[DARk_ANGEL]
