Defragging the Xbox the hard drive.
« on: December 30, 2003, 05:30:00 AM »

erm, C drive is limited on space,

the only reason it wouldnt have worked is because evox has autoadditem as F:apps, and i'll bet you dont know how to edit evox.ini to point towards other drives

well, simply 'edit' evox.ini and add a line near the autoadditem  F:apps bit and call it autoadditem as C:apps

now you can put your apps on C drive!

no way of 'defragging' xbox hdd, simply ftp everything to your PC, format the drive and ftp everything back

Defrag?

It's not a simple thing, that's for sure. Even the software for the PC can't do a great job of it.

Now a program that frees up space after some programs fail in properly erasing stuff... that would be nice. Something that cleans up directory entries like Disk Doctor would be useful.

Fixing free space shouldn't be as difficult though.  Anyone have a technical explaination of that issue with BoXplorer?

I'm puzzled how you fragmented a drive so much already?! I add and delete LOTS of files on my box and I've never noticed a speed difference to date.

I'm not sure..

Theory-wise you would think (especially if you're shuffling games on your XBOX) that a defrag every once in a while would do the hard drive good.

So I'm just as curious if there is actually a HDD Defrag tool for XBOX...

Anyone else got more info, and more importantly a name of the program if it exsists??

Max_Payne...look at the title dumbass. It says "merged topics". That's why it appears everyone is asking the same thing. Fucking genius.

i've transfered over 90gb's to my xbox hd...still runs fine.
