Rigging a 360 hard drive - PSPCrazy Forums - PSP Games, PSP Downloads, PSP News, and PSP Themes

I did some looking round, and I think it's possible to rig a sata disk to run on a 360
coz a 360 drive is just a sata drive fitted with an sata+power to 360 adapter

can anyone confirm this

Closest I can figure is I could buy a smaller drive, take it apart, and copy the filesystem across to a larger drive then put the larger drive in the HD case

well i read sometime back that they tried replacing it with a bigger HD and it didn't detect the extra space but im not sure if it worked.

I turns out that there a program which will alter sectors 16 to 21 on a hard drive allowing replacement of a 20Gb (13Gb actually) with a larger drive as long as it is consistant with with 360 HDD e.g.40Gb 80Gb 120Gb
And if I recall it also requires a certain file from the target size HDD
an hddss.bin file
