is this possible? my hdd has been unlocked and locked and when hooked up to slave position it wont read it. i have a program that checks all mass storage devices and it shows up there, but i cannot access it. I'm trying to move games from my HDD to my computer, but it takes so long to do that. is there anything that i can do? thanks for the time

Your PC wont see the hdd because it cannot recognize the format. All xbox hdd's are formated in FATX which windows cant recognize. Therefore, when you hook up your hdd to your PC and try to access it, nothing shows up. You are going to have to do it the slow way... Sorry...
If you are using Avalaunch as your dashboard and have Quix, then you will transfer at speeds around 10mbps. When you use both in conjunction with eachother then boost mode is automatically enabled. _________________ http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-tutorials-211.html
