Hey everyone,
After getting my feet wet modding the NES Classic edition a buddy and I decided to mod a couple of OGXBOX's. we have successfully softmodded both, installed 250gb hard drives in both, and cloned them using chimp. Now here is the fun part.....
We are both Mac users, so I dug out a laptop that's been in my closet for years to do all of this. It runs windows XP but I have managed to ftp in just fine and load stuff onto the Xbox.
We had kinda figured we would build up mine first, and then ftp into his after and mirror what I've done with mine. As it turns out, my old school laptop is painfully small and has very little storage. Every time I download a ROM pack, ISO or anything else I have to ftp it onto my Xbox and delete it from my laptops hard drive before downloading the next item.
So everything we have downloaded for mine will have to bedownloaded onto my laptop again before we can load it onto his.
We ordered identical hard drives, though his Xbox is 1.5 or below and mine is a 1.6, and again we have already softmodded both.
One I have completely setup mine, could we remove his hard drive and clone mine the same way we cloned them when upgrading? Could I overwrite what's currently on his? Would I have to format it first or unlock it?
Any advice is appreciated and my buddy will really appreciate it! Also please dumb it down, prior to the NES hack I've never been a computer guy but everyone here has been super helpful and great with that.
