Hi there Gbatemp!
So in 2013 I bought a Xbox360 Slim with 320gb HDD. I got RGH and since than I didn't update the Chip and I would really want to get it to the last version available.


I haven been playing from a external 2TB 3'5" HDD which at this moment is just a drag to handle since I have to connect everything just to play some games. I have 750GB 2'5" HDD and I was thinking about putting it inside the 360 so I can have all my games in there. How do I do this after the update of the system?

I include a Screenshot of my current Dash Info

No need to update the chip.

What I recommend you to do is first read this and then read that.

That'll guide you through updating the machine and install a new HDD in it.
You can also substitute FSD for Aurora.
Dashlaunch on the disk is outdated, so you'll have to source the newest Dashlaunch from the web.
You can put the latest dashlaunch on a USB drive and use FSD's filemanager or XeXMenu's filemanager to copy it to the HDD.

Are you using the latest JRunner?

Seems to be working fine on me end (v0.4)
I downloaded v0.4 and it is not downloading anything when I enter Add dash the small window is just there, empty. Can't seem to add anyhitng and the default dash is 17511 and the official dash I downloaded from MS is 17526. Xbox 360 scene is confusing.

You got means to flash your NAND back with hardware?
Then you got nothing to worry about.

Otherwise PM me your NAND and CPU key, I could build a freshly hacked one for you.

You can download it from here.

Works just like the normal one.
Thanks man! I will finally do this! So the other thing is how do I do the internal HDD swap I can't seem to find an exhaustive tutorial on how to create the partitions and use the whole 750gbs of the new WD HDD.

If JRunner isn't working you can always use xeBuild to update the NAND instead - dump it with Simple 360 NAND Flasher if you don't already have a backup, load it up in xeBuild, enter your CPU key and it should automatically select all the right settings for you so you just need to click 'Generate hacked image' at the bottom and then put the resulting updflash.bin file on a USB stick and boot into Xell to flash it.

As for installing a larger hard drive, with a JTAG/RGH'ed 360 you can just format it in System Settings and it will set it up for you, with no nonsense about partitions - you'll get the full size of the drive (it supports up to 2tb, IIRC). So you can just open your HDD case and swap out the current 2.5" drive for any other.

Is there a way upgrade an internal HDD in an RGH 360, and transfer everything from the smaller internal HDD to a larger internal HDD without using a PC? I wanna go from a 500gb internal to 1TB internal.

Or perhaps if I connect both drives to my PC via a dual SATA dock, copy from one to the other?

FTP everything to your PC (if you got the space for it) and FTP it back.

Otherwise, you could try and plug the old HDD to the 360 and copy it off via that.
if you got a SATA -> USB bridge.
