Old XBOX (before 360

[estrichleger]

I have bought a Sata to IDE Adapter for my old Xbox (the one before the 360) and cloned my old drive to the new Sata HDD (2TB size). Dtill I get the error 07 that tells me that the hdd is not recognized. The adapter has no jumper to bring it to Cable Select mode. Is there another way to get it working? This is the Adapter




Sorry for the topic. I pressed Enter too soon.

How is the thing modded?

Softmods will probably struggle with most adapters, hence the need for https://xboxdrives.x-pec.com/?p=list , as they are unlikely to do everything that it needs. Hardmods (chip or TSOP, though I see some new chips coming out as well https://gbatemp.net/threads/project-stellar-a-new-og-xbox-modchip-with-insane-expandability.634286/ ) have no such concerns about drive compatibility as they replace the BIOS wholesale rather than needing it to boot for a moment before taking over.

OK. I have a modchip in which I can select different Bios. I believe I have a Xecuter Bios on it. Is there something new for this modchip? SWmartXX is on the label of the modchip.

Can the XBOX boot from DVD even if the hdd is not recognized?
Trying to get Slayers toiwork to get a partiniod drive. I tried it with FatXplorer but maybe this program is not good enough

Have you upgraded the IDE cable?

What method did you use to clone the drive?

BTW, normally I see the original Xbox is referred to as the "OG Xbox" or "Original Xbox".

Yes I have a 80pin cable in the works. After I tried to pull it out of the socket it got broke. So I ordered two new ones. Have to wait until its there.

I used FatXplorer to create to partitions and then copied everything from c,e,f,g and so on on the right partitions in the new 2TB Hdd.

What I found out now is that the XBox wont boot from DVD when the 2TB Hdd is plugged in but when my very old ide hdd is in it boots.

Could it be that I have not a correct bios. In oter words. Is the 2TB HDD too much for my M8plus or Xecuter bios?

I wouldn't advise getting the cheap IDE to SATA adapters, StarTech ones tend to peform way better.
