Hey anyone know how to make your pc recognize your xbox harddrive as an external hard drive when you plug it in through ethernet so you can defrag it? or is there a defrag program you can get? Thanks for any help
UNLOCKING THE XBOX HD: Since the Xbox hd has the ATA Security feature enabled, you'll need to unlock it before you attempt to image it. This is the cable swap method. Setup your Xbox and your PC right next to each other, such that the PCs available IDE drive cable, and power connector can reach the Xbox HD. Connect an available power connector from the PCs power supply to the Xbox hd. Connect the IDE cable from Xbox to the the Xbox hd. Power up the PC and hit the "Pause" key before it autotypes the drives. Power up the Xbox to the idle Dashboard. *During the Xbox startup, the Xbox transmits the password via the ATA Unlock Command, and the drive is unlocked. Now, carefully disconnect the Xbox IDE cable from the Xbox hd. Plug the PC IDE cable into the Xbox hd. Hit any key on the PC keyboard to let it continue to boot. Now the drive is unlocked and reconnected to the PC, ready for read(/write?) operations.
