Hack a 250gb, 320gb or 500gb Sata harddrive to work in the Xbox 360 and Xbox 360 Slim

pc drive is only compatible if its a 2.5" laptop drive and its one of the WD models listed on page 1

 

the drive im trying to hack is one too....im getting fustrated,,,,,smh

 

Disconnect all pc hard drives and connect the wd hdd you want to hack to the 1st sata port.

 

Updated my BIOS and still no good... Maybe "Raid" is enabled..? I don't see an option to turn that off... Could that be listed as anything else in the BIOS? I know, noob question, but bear with me <.<

 

Anything like raid. legacy . ide .sata .ahci. If you can post pictures of the bios, that might help.

 

Photos of me looking through BIOS, then attempting.

What sata modes are available?

 

IDE & AHCI... I've tried both just in case, even though I knew that AHCI is not what it should be on.

 

After looking at your previous posts. Are you still having the issue in bold below? Try typing in hddhackr.exe

 

Yeah, same issue... BTW, I typo'd in that one post, not when entering it in on the boot menu for hacking the drive... If I typo it on the boot menu, it just says "bad command or file" and I can try typing it again... And if you look in my screenshot, I typed it correctly. I've also tried it with and without .exe on the end, and in all caps and all lowercase... Nothing helps

 

there is another way to hack hdd without hddhackr?

 

me too the same problem and the boot menu so as to you

 

Im thinking it has to be a bug with dos and different bios.I will look into this and post a list of fixes that might work.

 

Try these.
1.Change usb dos creator folder.
-Select the box with 3 dots and choose the USB Drive Boot Files\MS-DOS folder as the location
-Instead of ms-dos, select folder FreeDOS
-Copy hddhackr & hddss.bin to the usb
-Press enter when it asks for date & time. When C:\ shows up, type in hddhackr.exe or hddhackr
2.Try creating the usb dos with this. Boot and Run DOS from USB | USB Pen Drive Linux
-copy hddhackr & hddss
3.Use a different usb drive.

 

I've successfully hacked my 250 gb drive so that my xbox 360 sees it. I formatted it on my xbox 360 with no problems and it seems like all of the storage is available. Now I want to add partition 2 so that I can play old xbox 360 games. But I can't find a copy of Xplorer 360 Extreme 2 that is not corrupted with malware. Does anyone know where I can get an un-infected copy?

 

Sorry, but I did not understand how to change the folder, just selected? And as with the date and time of what to do there?

 

Just download it here: https://download.digiex.net/Consoles/Xbox360/AppsPC/Xplorer360Extreme2.7z
Your anti-virus must be flagging that as a virus.It has no malware or viruses.

Open the dos for usb program and choose the folder freedos.(see image link below)

For the date and time press enter.

 

succeeded with FreeDOS hacked hdd like you said. How will it be done only at the MS-DOS and with FreeDOS. but nzn or hdd works because I do not have db xbox just weekend you can check, but when I combine hdd to pc and trying too Put your Xplorer360 Extreme2 me he can not find what to do? Do I need xbox formatted hdd?

 

Try making sure to run Xplorer Extreme2 as administrator or it may not see the drive....that is, only if you want the original xbox emulator.

It wouldn't detect mine at first, then i realized I had to run it as admin, then voila, it worked

 

Everything is working great. No Malware seems to have infected my computer and I'm able to play old games now. Thanks for the help!
