[SuSp3cT666]

Hi

[ellis2311]

[vistastructions]

@ellis2311 would u waste that money??????

[Xxno0bkellerXx]

is that elmo in the background



[gandalfwiz20007]

i have a wd scorpio 120 gb, and when i put it in my laptop, it doesn't boot, it just remains stuck in the screen where the brand is marked.

[XxZombehKittehKatxX]

will a battery powered portable computer work lol

[A2124l]

i wish u was my brother!!!! god damn it

[JelloHead321]

CONGRAGULATIONS. now you just need to write a book about it flamerball Z

[djrod9807]

will it work for western digital scorpio blue 320 gb? WD3200BEVT

[twilightrucho]

can you install a 1tb hdd ?

[hippystabber]

@twilightrucho yes i believe you can go up to 2tb but what would be the point . . 500gb would be enough!! wouldn it?

[vistastructions]

@twilightrucho do u need it?

[BellerbyDK]

Do you know if its possible to make a non-microsoft usb to a microsoft usb?

[OhNoNotMyPenis]

@BellerbyDK

Any usb storage device will work on the xbox as long as it meets the performance thats needed.

[BellerbyDK]

@OhNoNotMyPenis Yeah i know that. but ive got a 32gb usb and the xbox can only use 16 gb from any device thats no microsoft.

[OhNoNotMyPenis]

@BellerbyDK

even the MS branded usb sticks have the 16gb limit they just slap thier name on them to make more money

[MrUbisoft3]

Now u Can hack 350 gb. I will make a video

[JustaLittleTrololol]

@dec3iver Can I do this without an 250gb WD hard drive? Like, can I just use an external hard drive, make a flash drive bootable and put the files on the external hard drive and connect the external hard drive to the Xbox?

[MrTlr555]

what if i have a scorpio blu hard drive but it has the old type of connection?

[PuroSantaMariaDelOro]

You could do all that,,but cant you also just buy anf hook-up a new harddrive??

[GoneBadKiwi]

@PuroSantaMariaDelOro You can via USB but some content requires an "Xbox Hard-drive" not a USB hard drive.

[oODrHacksOo]

I LOVE YOU

[xThunderBallzX]

if you want to use this for an original xbox you you select no for partition

[AyDeeDurango]

Lol umi zumi



[JackomanTheThird]

Lol, I love that "Ba-Bye!" at the end XD

[leesolinap]

Can I do this with my ps3 HardDrive?

[JNiebr]

@leesolinap you can yet it needs to be acceptable by the console, so if you cant loadi nt he firmware, then its not going to work, google is your friend,

[Shreyasjag]

@ankit3375 hav your hacked it using this?

[shreyacooldude]

Hello. i actually have a 250 gig xbox slim which is not hacked yet. so i wanted to know if i can play pirated games if i hack it using this??

[ankit3375]

@shreyacooldude yes you can hack 250 gb xbox i hake

[JNiebr]

@shreyacooldude No, you need to also flash your disc drive to allow starting of bad game,s your xbox needs to be jtagged to do anything like what you are describing, all this does is increase HD size, nothing more.

[yeastori]

how do I use these programs, do I put them in my desktop aor put them in my USB cause I have no idea what to do with them at all. I downloaded the links you provided except for the 250GB HDSS.Bin cause I only have a 120GB hard drive. Anyways can you instruct me what to do with these programs to get me started

[JNiebr]

@yeastori you need a 250GB Seagate I believe to do this, otherwise you would need a firmware that would allow your xbox to see the hard drive and its formatting for the console, what you have may not work, google is your friend,

[yeastori]

is that Dora in the background?

[InverseBlue]

nice vid but if you clear your throat one more time imma kill myself.

[avik58]

this video has the cutest background music(cute kid i can tell by the voice) cute cute cute!! XoXO to the child

[eksyte]

Is this something that will get me banned and how do you keep the drive from flopping around in the console once it's installed?

[omarAkhan92]

@eksyte wont get you banned, and unless you are constantly moving your console while you are playing it, it should flop around

[pickford7812]

@omarAkhan92 you can block it with foam chunks, just be careful to not plug any holes on the hard drive, they're there and every drive i've read says not to do so. just do the corners so it doesnt over heat. you could go hcore and take an old laptop mounting bracket and weld/ solder it onto something in the shape of the xbox hard drive.

[Nicogome19]

I have a problem when appers Data from XBOX360 hddss.bin File then

manufacturer : hitachi bla blab bla.. New LBA size : blablaba the appers the hard drive its 500 GB

Readin HDD sect}tor 16 failed ! drq error : 0x0802 :s wut i have to dooo

[valdeze]

Yes, I keep getting an error when I try to play it, and I can't play the disc version of gta3.

[metaljam101]

does this solve the problem of battlefield 3 not being able to install high resolution textures, has anyone tried playing battlefield 3 with a hacked Hard drive ?

[wake4life6]

bumb



[CameronWoodward107]

I'm just gonna get a male to female 15+7 pin sata connector and just use my 1tb External Hard drive :) 

[xenyadot]

here's a question will this work if the drive has partitions?

[danielpaquito1]

a question, I have to start the Xbox 360 with the pen drive?

[simandsalar]

Are you watching Dora?

[XLPC1]

Will the mod allow legacy xbox games to be played? I bought what I thought was an official xbox 360 slim HD on ebay and wont play my legacy games! I should have gone to my local retailer.

[valdeze]

@XLPC1 i dont think so. i did this andi cant even play san andreas which i downloaded from the market place. I think i read that theoriginal hdd had some emulator software. 

[metaljam101]

@valdeze, are u saying that after installing the hacked hard drive u cnt play san andreas?...........i need to know all the details cus im planning to buy an xbox 360 4gb and then upgrade hdd to 250gb using the hack..... so plz lemme knw

[K2ACP]

THAT'S IT?!? I hope this works! Also, does Online Coop Firefight work with the hacked HDD in there?

[TheLilB24fastguy]

Can You Do That With A 500 GB And 1TB

[Ilovechevys]

@TheLilB24fastguy

you cant, the max allowed or that the xbox 360 can see is 320 gig. (just by putting in a hard drive. but im sure there are ways to mod the firmware to do it but thats when you run the risk of getting busted

[ped1232]

TEAM UMIZOOMI

[gsourze]

....everybody else no xbl ban and u can use fat32, i did you can also just flash it with out creating partitions cuz you can format it in the xbox! not sure if tgat gwts you closer to 320gb margin...

[gsourze]

hey dec3iver just flashed my wd scorpio black and it works well. its a 320gb drive and after the flashing it gives me 293gb of free space. any way to get it closer to 320gb? where did the remaining 37gb go seems like an awful lot?

[xxxthanatos1988]

If do this can i get my xbox 360 slim ban from xbox live?I need a concrete answere not a gues.thx in advance.

[ELijahKan10]

@xxxthanatos1988 no

[GuernB2]

i have a wd 120 gb that is compatible with hddhackr, but hddhackr says there is no ata devices connected

what do i do?

[thewickedvidzchannel]

alot of people have just broken their xbox

[Drakho001]

Hard drives are so expensive because the floods on thailand :C

[Infectedbulat]

@Drakho001 i just bought one of ebay WD scorpio back 320gb for 47$

[BrianM8685]

I have the same TV.

[bazk666]

Ok this looks straight forward, can you tell me (a stupid Q) but why only some western digital 2.5 HD's ! surely I would have thought hacks would be for any 2.5 Hd's.

[Infectedbulat]

@bazk666 WD scorpio

[bazk666]

@Infectedbulat Yeap purchased 500gb WD Scorpio Black, configured it with the HSS 320.bin installed into xbox slim 4gb, format within xbox, it now gives me 293GB ( of course there is no bigger HSS.BIN) excellent, thx for the tut dec3iver ...

[gruntlogic6239]

Hey where did you purchase that wd scorpio blue hdd for that price? I havent been able to find one for less than $90 anywhere.

[felipeleon300]

hey i got a toshiba 120g harddrive stuck inside the external slot on my slim. how do i get it out? it plugged in perfectly but seems to jam on something

[32lillebror]

@felipeleon300 open it up and check why it is stuck hope that helped

[mm9663]

Do you know how to make it play backups?

[franklinruben]

hello friend I can use a disk 360gb, 500gb and a 160 gb with the same process

[DackDack123]

@franklinruben yes you can as long is its 2.5 inch SATA

[franklinruben]

@DackDack123 thanks brow!!!



[bilalbashir34]

my xbox360 slim 4gb has to be hacked to install any other hdd for this process ?

i can install 250gb hdd on 360 slim 4gb right out of the box?

[jhonnybroche]

Not really worth it anymore since HDD is going for $80-90 now, can just buy the xbox 360 250gb HDD for the same price.

[MsFx007]

did it via sata port on my pc. Thanks

[MsFx007]

Works man. Thanks

[dizzytechman]

Hot damn it works thanks man

[1mrhiphop]

U A STAR!

[AgentCell]

Does anyone know how I can find the backup for a WD2500BEVT? I accidentally deleted my backup so if anyone has or knows where I can acquire the backup it would make my day.

[srewwe]

ELMO!

[Luis13Neto]

@srewwe fuck yeah!

[TutorialPerfection]

Can't this get you banned??

[AgentCell]

@TutorialPerfection No. This is just a HDD. If you mod the motherboard or use any CFW or dongle to pirate or cheat in games, then you'll get banned. I have a CFW PS3 and I never got banned. It's all about being inconspicuous.

[sampenl]

are you using 2.5 inch sata harddrive or?

[jarom0A0Z]

i have a 80 gig wd scorpio can i use that?

[jordanbrink420]

could you put homebrew on the hard drive also?

[deathwarrent80]

instead of a laptop could you connect the hard drive to a computer with a sata cable?

[nickgotjeffhardy345]

im gonna get the hard drive even tho i got a xbox360 360 gb mw3 edition i want more so i saw the hard drive it cost like 400$ in the u,s at walmart but can my xbox mess up when i switch the hard drived like insdie the xbox 360

[stan464]

@nickgotjeffhardy345 The prices of hard drives have risen high due to the floods in Taiwan. 

[AgentCell]

Do you have the undo.bin for this model: WD2500BEVT-22A23TO

[Gmez1407]

@TheBrknGuitar

No. it's a hitachi travelstar

[Chrizzl3Th3h4x]

is this as easy as he makes it look??

[XD4rkCha0s]

will it work with a 1TB HDD

[Gmez1407]

Would this hack work for a 100 gig SATA hdd that I pulled out of an old laptop?

[TheBrknGuitar]

@Gmez1407 is it a wd scorpio?

[tupham81]

For gods sake... if you were more organised you couldve condensed your instructions into a 1 min video.

[chatotais]

Thanks! Worked nicely!!!

[TheMatheusRock]

Hi, i have purcheased and used xbox 360 hd without problem, but one day i format it in the pc, now i dont know how to nfigure again. I try your method but when i type hddhackr the screen stuck. can you help me??

[topwebz]

Thanks so much for the video. Would you be so kind to provide me with a link to the hard drive you purchased? I would like to order it online, but don't know the exact model. I just purchased the new Xbox 4GB Slim, and can't wait to do this. One last question. Does updating the console in any way effect the hard drive? I appreciate your time to make this video for us.

[topwebz]

@topwebz nvm I found the 500GB one at Newegg for $59.99 I found the case for 8 bucks on Ebay. YOU ROCK MAN!

[stan464]

@topwebz No point using 500 gigs, the flashing of the drive will only make 250 of that usuable, the other 250 is wasted.

[PS3RyanPlanB]

yo momma

[montklem]

when I put the 250gb scorpio in the laptop it does not see the harddrive

[IILaymanII]

i heard that all you have to do is put it in your xbox turn it on, format the hardrive then it works is this true??

[jeanlucncoelho]

Im going to install a ps3 HDD on my xbox >=)

[cchhrriiss825]

Can i use a Western digital Scorpio Blue WDBABB2500ANC??

[boricuaro713]

4:17 da da daaaaa da da dadadaaaa

[9911963222]

hi will i get banned if i play online using this hdd pls no trolls tell me true

[SnipeMeNot]

@9911963222 duhh! xbox cannot detect hardware and its not a violation of anything theyll just say its unsafe to use it but its not

[TheOutspokenman1]

@dec3iver im typing in HDD Hackr but nothing happens, im also trying version 1.30 and nothing, help please!

[TheSlurpeeBoy]

THIS COULD POTTENTIALLY GET YOU BANNED FROM XBL, JUST BE A MAN AND PAY THE EXTRA MONEY. THIS PROCESS JUST MAKES YOUR HDD LIKE A GIGANTIC FLASH DRIVE...

[Chrizzl3Th3h4x]

@TheSlurpeeBoy this cannot get you banned, and thats all a HD is anyway!!

[haresh2094]

I have a 40gb 2,5 internal HDD. Will it work to my slim ?

[King0fHArtford]

DCE3Aiver, brother..one question... I'm stuck at 1) ox01f0 die pri sale none... NI ATA INDENTIFY POSSIBLE 2) 0x0170 Sec Master NONE C:/-

[Psychonaut95]

Hey could you technically do this on a desktop? My dad has my laptop and will be gone a while.

[GeneralHawx]

hey did u get the hard drive case? i would like the link to it thanks :D

[cisco760ca]

Great video buddy and thanks for the useful information . Just a quick question . Can i use a 250gb western digital scorpio black for a regular none slim xbox360 ?

[wulflord14]

@DeeKay0310 you can only use 16gb of it though so its kind of a waste to do so

[rowen211]

will this work with a solid state drive?

[tiptop08]

i did everything in this but with the updated stuff and I get I get error in red [Reading HDD sector 16 failed! DRQ Error: 0x0802 can anyone help me thanks

[joshxXx9876]

Wait... I have a 1tb external hard drive, can i plug into a comp and do same? It has 2.0 usb plug

[COMEDYSTREETXXL2011]

that would be so cool if it would be real lol

[Matthew55904]

my 20GB Xbox 360 HDD is a Seagate so how come the S can only use Western Digital a Hard Drive is a Hard Drive whys it even matter

[UnreadyVirus]

hey good morning , if you flash your drive the only thing that happens is to have more space ?

[UnreadyVirus]

@UnreadyVirus and can you flash it on windows 7 ?

[reinaldonieves1985]

@MrKaremZh Yes you can I've done it. The only thing is it will only be read as 250GB By xbox360 and will not be able to split the two partitions cause I've tried that as well. But you can do it with a 500GB but you will be losing out on 250GB's though. But hey...I did it cause it was convenient for me to get a hold of. Hope this helped.

[SuperBryantl]

im so confused

[byehihi]

so if i do this i can do anything on live

like play online...download games...etc.??

i really dont wanna get banned

[nahidabdullah]

why doesn't this work in my Hitachi zk5320

[myabbagod]

What does reading hdd sector 16 failed!DRQ error mean????

[MuzzaHukka]

@FibreFoX Sorry, my bad. You can use the HDDSS.bin with the 320GB but you can only use it with a STAR WARS or GoW3 console. I haven't heard of any plans about Microsoft updating their consoles to support 320GB and I also don't know why they even put restrictions on their HDD space. They could release a HDD with 1TB cos' as far as I know their are 2.5" 2TB laptop drives (If you know where to buy them). ALSO, do you guys in the US already have GoW3 consoles? Cos' its only gonna' be released la...

[dec3iver]

@jamesa119 the hddhackr program will not detect the harddrive if it is anything other than the WD scoripo

[dec3iver]

@MrKaremZh There isnt a 500gb hddss.bin file available for the xbox 360. if you used a 500gb drive with the 250gb bin file you would only see the 250gigs

[dec3iver]

@skoold4life2010 you dont have to open the xbox up so you dont have to worry about voiding your warranty. 2: i'm not sure what theater mode is but if you need a hard drive to do that then this will work for you. 3: No. 4: no

[dec3iver]

@skoold4life2010 Its been running with since I installed it in this video. i've got tons loaded on it and still have 150gigs still free.

[Syphyryna]

If I do this, will it affect my Xbox live capabilities? I'm not trying to mod anything, I just want to do this for more space. I have a 4gb slim.

[FivePinNeutralize]

@Syphyryna No the reason why is that that is the same Hard drive that Xbox uses for 250GB. they just give it a case and some OS/software and charge $150 for that. and $100 if you buy it with system

[dec3iver]

@Syphyryna no it will not hurt anything

[whiteboyswag187]

will the tape melt in my hard drive?

[TheShadydeath]

@dec3iver

how can i do it with a 500gb version? cus i cant find the file for 500gb

[whiteboyswag187]

Does this have to done with a lap top? i wouldn't be able to do this with my normal computer thats running windows xp? also does the usb drive have to be plugged in at all times after you do this? I don't mind it just looks odd with a chip coming out of the xbox all the time I was wondering if after you install everything and put the hard drive in if you can just take out the usb drive after everythings done and you still get all the extra storage?

[dec3iver]

@whiteboyswag187 The thumb drive was just a test of USB storage it doesnt have anything to do with the video. You dont need a laptop to do this, you just need a computer with a sata controller. If you listen to the video i tell you the thumb drive in the xbox was just for testing and has nothing to do with the mod

[SuperCoolTech4life]

your watching family guy

[SuperCoolTech4life]

thats not a new laptop

[dazmolybiz]

hi i have a hitachi hard drive and it fits into the xbox its the same connection thing can i use this or does it have to be a wd scorpio ?

[dec3iver]

@dazmolybiz it has to be a wd scorpio otherwise the hddhackr program will not detect it.

[h0505210303]

thanks , but can I put more than 250 GB , and I will do it on Fat Xbox I guess it is same thing right ?

[Freshkiiid1]

can u get banned by doing this ??

[nahidabdullah]

y hack the hd ???

[MuzzaHukka]

For the guy requesting a 320GB HDD BIN File, there's no point of even obtaining the file because you can't do anything unless you own that 320GB drive. The Gears of War console was made to accept HDDs up to 320GB, the 4GB and standard 250 weren't. Also, last but not least, for the HDD itself, there isn't a 320GB Scorpio drive. Microsoft made special ones themselves which would require you to buy a limited edition console. The only other way would be to ask a friend to sneak a hard drive out but

[FibreFoX]

@MuzzaHukka sry to interrupt you, but you are wrong! WD does ship a 320 GB hdd, its the WD3200BPVT

[MuzzaHukka]

...ter this year

[tHEBAYAREASFINEST415]

hey i got a sony vaio notbook computer ( DC 19.5V ) you think this could work

[TyGxMoNeY]

hey can u inbox me the file for 320 hdd

[KennyDiesVEVO]

Shitbox three shitty and Shit s 3 can suck PC's ass

[HybridSquirrel]

will this hard drive be able to have games installed on it?

[mixindave1]

is there a way to do this differently? i have my spare 40GB from a ps3 and im going to put it in a usb enclosure first then put it in a 360 slim. can i hack it this way? cheers

[TheChickenrun3]

@mixindave1 40GB won't work now you can either get a 60GB or it will only show 20GB

[mixindave1]

@TheChickenrun3 well im not gonna spend any money so a 20GB will be fine considering i only have a 4GB slim.

[TheChickenrun3]

@mixindave1 trust me if you have halo or any other game that takes some hdd your fucked with 20 and is 60 is dirt fuckin cheap
