Broken hard drive! I have a few questions about transferring data.

Woowoowhistle · Apr 5, 2014

First, the symptoms of the hard drive, and then I have a few questions

-The Xbox will start turning on, then right before or right after it loads up the dashboard, it freezes.

-When the hard drive is not in, no freezing. No game data, either, of course.

Now for questions.

If I transfer data from the corrupted hard drive to a new one, will it corrupt the new hard drive?

Can you even transfer data from corrupted hard drives?

Does it just transfer games, or does it also transfer my save data from said games?

:)

Star wars battlefront 2 data

So I know you cannot download the expansion pack for this anymore, but I do have the downloadable content on one of my hard drives. Is there any way of just transferring that data to another hard drive without transferring all the other data as well?

If you know for certain it is corrupted, avoid doing a transfer. You could transfer content but the odds are good that the content will be corrupted in the new HD. Transfer cable transfers game saves, profiles, achievements, game licenses etc.

Hi there SupZ1

There is already ways to transfer to different hard drives if both are working on the storage settings on xbox one.

I have had problems with a broken hard drive before, There isn't away to transfer data if the drive is broken so a long reinstall process is whats needed to be done if they broken.

I have a question about DATA TRANSFER RATE

what is a good speed ?

I'm looking at a sea gate backup plus 3 TB

DATA TRANSFER RATE is 4.8 Gbps

Is this any good ?

Thanks for any help or tips

After retrying it on my brother's xbox, it got to the dashboard. Unfortunately, it still can't read the data... However, it recognizes that there is 38.2GB taken on the Hard Drive and it looks like it may be able to transfer said data to a different hard
drive. I'm going to attempt to do this on to my friend's 120GB Hard Drive in a few hours when he comes over. I'm hoping that if I can transfer the data to my friend's hard drive, maybe it will be readable. Then I can format my hard drive and transfer it back.
