Remove Your Xbox 360
Drive
Microsoft expects you
to pay close to $200 to upgrade your Xbox 360's hard drive from 20GB to 120GB.
That's about $150 more than a 120GB SATA drive actually costs. But with this
slightly tricky hack, you can save a bundle while boosting your game console's
storage capacity to hold more music, video, and other media files.
You'll need a DOS
installation on a writable flash thumb drive for this hack. (The utility
doesn't work under Windows, and you'll also be disconnecting your PC's hard
drive.) First, grab a spare USB thumb drive and copy the HP Drive Key Boot
Utility to it. The utility is designed for HP flash drives, but it works on
other types of flash drives, too. Also download and mount a DOS image file.
This hack is designed
to work with a specific drive, the 120GB Western Digital Scorpio, model number
WDGWD1200BEVS. You'll be replacing the drive's native firmware with
Xbox-recognized firmware. You can track down the firmware online by doing a
search for "hddss.bin 120 Xbox 360." Place the hddss.bin file in the
root of your DOS thumb drive.
Once you have these
items and files ready, begin the upgrade by removing your Xbox 360's hard drive
from the game console.
