You can already change the filesystem. Its the sercurity chip that is getting in the way. I have been meaning to see if there is a a way i can take the security chip off the memory card and put it in a flash drive or jsut upgrade the memory in the 360s memory card. I have been very busy with school and this 360sata stuff though. I will let everybody know though if i find the time to figure out anything.

i'm assuming the security chip, which, by the way, i hate, is the silver eliptical one? is that right? i was wondering since there's also a similar chip in both the wireless and the wired controller.

ok you know that silver chip? in the controllers it's eliptical. it's also tagged with "24.000" somewhere on each of the silver chips. at first i thought crystal since it's a 2.4ghz system, but that doesn't make any sense why it'd be in the wired and the mem card. that's why i figured this was the security chip. upon further investigation i learned that there is the same chip labele "24.000" inside of a device called the "medusa," which is a unit hidden under the 360 through which the xbox 360 is controlled in store displays. it only has 2 contact points. if anyone has any ideas or thinks this could help, i may have come across an extra medusa.

M$ is greedy and I can't stand it. It pisses me off beyond words that since I didn't want the HD because I only plan on storing game saves, I am almost forced to get the HD since I can't use my own personal usb flash drive. M$'s too worried about people finding holes in their system to allow the consumer to have options.

USB ports are programmed for READ-ONLY, so memory saving will never work on the 360 via the USB
ports.

That doesn't make sense, USB is just a way to send and recieve data. If they made it impossible for the USB to send any data then nothing would work since even the most basic device needs to be sent information to work.

i was just starting to make my own adapter and was wondering if i could use a female usb plug straight to the memory card just to make connections easier.

and by the way this is some great stuff here alot better than paying extra for stuff that i should i have already been able to receive with the cost of the system but i guess thats M$.

If this is the case, how is one with a wired controler, with a memory card able to save? It has to go trough the USB

An even if this is true, then im sure someone will find a way to plug a USB drive into a controller instead maybe

M$ will be owned.....they can't always be so greedy!

any advancements on this topic?

i just can't bring myself to buy a 40 dollar memory card. But i want to portable functionality of my live account.

especially when i've got a 512mb usb thumb drive sitting here.

64mb for 40 bucks, you'd think it was the 90s again.

You can only use flash drives to transfer music/pictures unless someone makes some homebrew for the Xbox 360 for it to save gamesaves.

Are they programmed by software or hardware?

i obviously have no purpose here but to encourage the efforts of this attempt, but i beg you to please not give up, this would be a great asset to be able to have a flash drive work as a memory card.
