    Well i'm going to buy a new harddrive for my xbox. Is a size 120 GB harddrive good enough? And do i have to go thorought that whole prosess of formatting it? Or can i just hook up the new HD to my computer and then FTP my xbox and just copy the XBOX HD to the new one? thanx

    Do you have a modded xbox? I'm assuming you do as you can FTP.

    What I did was FTP all the stuff on my xbox HDD to my PC.
    Then I made a EvoX boot disk.
    Then I swapped HDDs and formatted the new one with the EvoX boot disk.
    While the disk was in I FTPed back to PC and transferred all my xbox stuff back on to my drive.

    Remember to lock your HDD after you are finished.

    Hope this works for ya. ;)
