FSD & Transfer Kit

[fitzybhoy]

Planning on buying a new hd for 360. Got a data transfer kit. Does it just clone all the contents or just the partitions? Will it move FSD and settings as well?

Just for the record, if this is intended purely for an RGH console without a dual NAND or have an intention of using it on a stock console then no need to buy an official MS HDD. Instead replace the internal HDD with any 2.5" SATA HDD up to a 2TB in size.

It's just for some dlc and installing games to the internal drive. A 120GB from CEX is £35, that's more than plenty. Just don't want the hassle of installing FSD again.

It's actually for my dad. He only has a 20gb internal drive and already has a 1tb external for all his games. Now that games like GTA5, Ghosts & BF4 require 1 disc to be installed to internal drive, he doesn't want the hassle of constantly installing and uninstalling the content. Unless there is a way to install both discs to external drive and still get them running?

Just open his existing 20GB HDD caddy, remove the old 20GB HDD and replace it with a standard generic 2.5" laptop HDD similar to one of these:

1TB HDD
500GB HDD
320GB HDD
250GB HDD

There are loads of different prices and offers on there, just get one within your budget. Once replaced into the caddy, install back onto the console and format as normal from settings menu. The HDD will be then visible to your RGH console and will function in the same way as your internal HDD. And you still get to use your external HDD along for other games.

As I posted previously, I can get a 120gb in CEX for £35. he's quite happy to pay that. Just means I'll need to re-install FSD. I've never done a Data Transfer before, are there any does and don'ts? Take it everything is transferred over, installed games, profiles, saves etc?

Also one last question. What about the official MS dash? He is running the latest version. I presume the dash is stored in the console and not the HD?

Thanks for your help.
