The Xbox 360 has been ‘hacked’ so that you can transfer games saves to and from the Xbox 360′s hard drive and to and from the memory card (by effectively turning the memory card into a flash drive). Using a free program that is now available, Xplorer360 can access every single part of the 360 hard drive. Features:
- FULL Read/Write to 360 HDDs.
- FULL Read/Write to 360 Memory Units.
- Physical and Logical drive access.
- Support for opening of dumps of both devices.
- Backup/Restore dump options.
I don’t think that anyone from the public has tried it yet, so we don’t know for sure how well it works. To add or remove data from the hard drive, you have to take it apart and put it into your computer via a SATA controller, and the memory unit has to be taken apart too. So don’t try this if your worried that it might break, because it might and Microsoft won’t fix your box.
“Also interesting – this tool will allow you to move over your old Xbox 1 gamesaves to your Xbox 360 (they will probably have to go somewhere in /partition3/Compatibility/Xbox1/ or /partition3/H2/), something that was impossible up to now.” This seems like an interesting feature, that I wish MS could have incorporated it into the 360, because I will not try this out as I don’t want to ruin my box (nor the warranty from MS).
