    It'd probably work just fine.

    To install it, back up everything important on your old hard drive to your PC. Meaning, the entire C and E partitions. Then swap out the hard drives, and boot up the Xbox with AID or Slayer's and format the hard drive. This will allow you to use all the space on your hard drive. Afterwards, transfer all your back-up information from you old hard drive to your new one, and you should be good to go.

    Not that I know of. Why don't you want to use FTP?

    Alright, good to know you have a friend willing to help you out with that.

    As for the signature, theridges made them for me. He offered to make me some userbars, and I happily accepted :)
