    Hard drive issue.


    I recently had the E69 error code appear while using my Xbox 360s (250gb) system. My system works fine without the HDD inserted, so it appears to be corrupted. This means my xbox is unable to read the hard drive and the advice from support was pretty much
    "get a replacement". Support was unable to really give me a clear cut answer on weather getting a transfer cable and wiping the HDD by connecting it to my computer would fix the issue or not. So A. Get a new HDD(80€) or B. Get a transfer cable(20€).
    So if anyone could tell me if using the transfer cable in this mannor would be effective, or just a waste of time. The diffence beeing 20€-100€ depending on the solution, you'd think someone would have posted something about this
    though. Appreciate any relevant advice, thanks.

    :)

    Hard drive issue??

    The no gamer pic and 0 gamerscore on my friends list just happened even though it was fine this morning. Everyone is a silver it says as well. Not sure what the problem is, seeing as I just turned it on and this happened. My 360 hasn't been freezing either,
    but it did take a tiny bit longer to connect to Live randomly and nothing has been changed.

    Hard drive issue.

    The data on an Xbox hard drive is not meant to be read on a PC. Trying to move them to a PC is a violation of the TOS and it is likely that the files will become corrupt and unusable.

    Thanks for your reply Homegrown, but let me clearify. I do not wish move the data on the HDD, I mean to remove/delete it.

    Still, a data transfer cable is only meant to be used to transfer the data between Xbox hard drives. It's not mean to be used to transfer data to a PC and Xbox files are not mean to be seen on a PC. So doing that would be a violation of the terms of service
    and can put you at risk for being banned.

    Hard drive issue?

    Ok, I notice by going into the games tab it has all of my arcade games. It won't show any of the images as it usually does when signed into xbox, but the games boot. It asks me to update,(since I booted Banjo Kazzoie) I press Download now and it just stalls,
    the download never finishes.(this is a 242 kb file)

    pretty sure that is against the forum rules as you are discussing a type of self repair to a damaged drive (formatted via 3rd party transfer cable).

    It appears you used a
    third party transfer cable     and ignored the screen that asked you if you wanted to format the HDD for use with the 360. The 250GB HDD is now a 16GB USB Memory Unit. It cannot be converted back into a 360 HDD.

    The only officially supported 250GB HDD (outside possibly a used HDD) for the original 360 console comes with everything needed to do a transfer, including the official transfer cable.
