You will need :

An Xbox 360 console

Two Xbox 360 hard drives

Data transfer cable (included with the Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Kit)

This may be included when you purchase the Xbox 360 Hard Drive

Data transfer software (incorporated with the Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Kit)

The Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Kit transfers all content to another hard drive. Read the users guide which you get with the Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Kit.

You’ll be able to transfer all content from one Xbox 360 hard drive (this is referred to as the “source”) to another Xbox 360 hard drive (this is referred to as the “destination”). The content from the source hard drive overwrites the data on the destination hard drive.

Obviously content can only be moved to another hard drive so long as the destination hard drive is the same size or larger than the source hard drive

When the transfer is complete, the content on the destination hard drive is going to be replaced with the content from the source hard drive. This content includes your saved games and Xbox LIVE downloads. When the transfer is complete, the content on the source hard disk is erased.

Film rentals

Films you have rented on the source hard drive will not be available after the move. Make sure that you watch all Xbox LIVE Marketplace movie rentals before you use the Hard Drive Transfer Kit.

Using the Hard Drive Transfer Kit

Warning with any transfer, there is a slight risk that some or all of your content can be lost during the transfer.

Only one hard drive can be connected to your Xbox 360 console at a time. The transfer cable can’t be used to connect multiple hard drives to your console at the same time.

To transfer all content from one hard drive to another

Switch off your Xbox 360 console with your current hard drive (the “source” drive) attached.

Disconnect all accessories from the console.

Turn on the console. Connect a controller and turn it on. You have got to use a controller during the content transfer.

Connect the transfer cable to the hard drive that you are moving content to (the “destination” hard drive).

Important The transfer cable connects to the destination hard drive in only one orientation. Do not force the connector on.

Connect the transfer cable to the destination hard drive in the orientation shown below.

Plug the other end of the transfer cable into the USB port on the back of your Xbox 360 console.

Important Do not plug the transfer cable into a USB port on the front of your Xbox 360 console.

Load the Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Disc (included with the transfer kit) into your Xbox 360 console. Instructions will appear on the screen

The transfer process can take more than 60 minutes, depending on the amount of content on the source hard drive.

The Xbox Dashboard is not available during the content transfer.

If the transfer is interrupted for any reason, your data will remain on the source hard drive. You may restart the transfer process anytime until the process is complete.
