Hi, I recently took apart my 360s hdd and connected it to my computer. I opened it using explorer360 and everything was fine. I decided to add a game save on because my brother accidently deleted my original one. Now when i connect it to the 360 it doesnt show up as a storage device. Any ideas? Even general answers would be nice. Thanks

From reading online they are saying that i might have overwritten my hddss.bin file. Does anyone iknow how to restore it. I have the genuine 360 drive not the scorpion bevs. So hddhackr wont work. Any ideas? thanks

How about restoring from a working 20GB image? I believe it overwrites the the bin file as well?

Thanks for the response i was hoping to get flooded but i guess not =( anyway wouldnt restoring it with a 20gb image make the drive only show as 20gb? And is there just a way to flash the hddss.bin without usuing hddhackr since that doesnt work? thanks again

I've had practically the same problem, except with a 120GB. Hooked it up to the computer using the Xecuter HD adapter v2 and opened it with Xplorer360. When I tried to put it back into the console, it says that it isn't detected. I've tried a million things and I just can't get it to be detected. I don't even care if I lose the data but here's one thing. When I open it with hddhackr and try to dump the hddss.bin file from it, it can successfully. And it can write the data to sectors 16-22 (I can do this manually anyway). But it can't flash because, obv, it just says that it's incompatible with the drive and only a WD BEVS will work. Would the problem still be down to this? Because I've got a backup of the drive, and I've tried zeroing and initialising, since that worked for some people, as well as using the raw image of another 120GB Fujitsu Xbox HD (that HD is detected). It still doesn't work, whichever method I use... Any ideas?

I did pretty much the same thing. Brought home a used 120 GB genuine drive from Gamespot, connected it to the 360 to confirm it worked, then I tried following the directions from the Youtube video about upgrading and the IVC wiki as well. Something was wrong with xplorer360 though, cause it kept giving me some error when I tried to copy data from partition 3 on my 20 GB drive, so I foolishly did Backup Image, and then put the 120 in and Restore Image. Now the drive is unreadable by the Xbox!!! I tried some of the other stuff on the wiki (winhex editing), but it still doesn't work.

With xplorer360 I was able to get partition2 to copy over, but no 3, and it still isn't seen by the Xbox. HELP!

I have the same issue, I don't care so much about being able to use the 20 GB drive again, I just want to use the 120 GB one, and have my game saves.  Is there any way to do this?  If I reflash the 120 GB and it works, is there anyway to get the files off the 20 GB to the 120 GB, I tried using the whole 360 xplorer, but it couldn't detect either of the drives.  Someone please help!
