Since i didnt have an offical xbox 360 so i just decided to buy a 500 3.5" 7200 rpm hdd. I took me 3 hours after trying to solve the e-68 error. After all of that i finally got it working, check it out.

what is the hard drive make and model? also what did you need to do to make it work? a tut would be nice.
-
First of all you will need a jtag 360, if you dont have one dont bother doing this. I think any SATA hard drive would work. You will need a hdd, SATA cable and power cable, some moderate soldering skills and something to strip the SATA cable (their a b***h to strip). i might make a tut for this, next time i solder it to another board.
-
Or you could just buy a 500gb 2.5 hard drive and put it in your factory hard drive case and it would look super clean. And yes you will need a jtag for this. Nice job though sako, i did a 1.5tb hard drive like that.
-
Thanks. The reason i went with the 3.5" is because they are cheaper than 2.5".
-
Yeah, 3.5s are way cheaper but i get 2.5 for really cheap from my supplier so i just go with 2.5. BTW anybody that hasnt done a jtag yet, i highly recommend it. Its a great feeling of accomplishment to make one and they kick ass.
-
so when your box is jtag'd, can you load up your harddrive with movies and music and play them as normal?
-
yeah, you have to download the media update from the xbox.com website. And install it from a usb device
-
Not only that you can play ur backed up games using the hdd, jtag can allow you to host mw2 lobbies, most people do this :confused: you can also run homebrew or install linux.
Hey crazy how much would it be for a 1tb or 2tb hdd from ur supplier?
-
Ill have to check with them. Probably not that much at all
-
what do you use to connect the hardrive to your computer to get all your files on there? im considering buyin a box to jtag
-
I use FTP since i dont know any free programs that read hdds that are formatted by the 360, since windows doesnt support that format. You can use a transfer cable if ur using microsoft 2.5 hdd case. If you dont find one one to sell you a jtag hit me up i sell some.
