I have a 11GB hard drive and I was thinking of getting a 20GB one, I was just wondering how to I transfer the data from one hard drive to the other? Will the 20GB hard drive come with a transfer cable?

Thanks in advance

There isn't an 11GB hard drive, as far as I know. What you've probably got IS the 20GB. It's just that a lot of the hard drive is taken up by emulation software, so in reality it's much less than 20GB.

I'm also from Europe, and I've never seen one, but oh well.

I've heard of their being a migration kit with the 120GB hard drive to transfer data, but there's no such kit with the 20GB. (eBay example of kit). If you're unable to find anything similar, or can't get any help from nearby stores, try ringing the Xbox 360 customer service thing (can't remember the number).

Are you sure you even want a 20GB hard drive? With all the emulation software you'll only have 13GB-14GB at best anyway. It's not much of a step up.

The only possible way I think you can transfer your files from one hard drive to another is transfer the files from one hard drive into a memory card and then transfer it to your new hard drive.

OK, I've been searching the Internet, I think I might have a 20GB Hard Drive but for some reason my memory always say 11.0GB since I took it out of the box. But what I read on the Internet is that 7 GB is for for Microsoft updates? Can anybody confirm this?
