  • hey, Im about to do this, and I was wondering if it will mess up the backup with the stock folders that are on there.

  • i did all from getting a 500gb hard drive to saving my games on a USB key of 8gb anf finally removing the screws and switch the hard drive but when i open it it says that i need to have a 4.00 or less upgrade for it to actually open ....!? What should i do ..!?

    Btw: i used the 500gb hitachi hard drive from my laptop that i used to play games with ...is that the problem!!??? Please awnser me !!!!! Only got 8000mb left
