If I do get extra drives to mount properly, my plan is to either try to use xbrowser to copy files between drives or write a script to handle bulk file copying (if xbrowser chokes on thousands of GB's for instance).Īnyways, I can register additional drives pretty easily by changing the arguments passed to QEMU and have those drives appear in linux, but it seems like I can't mount any of the FATX partitions in linux. I'm not sure if the xboxhdm linux image has some limitation in it that I'm not aware of that would slow transfer speeds way down because maybe it's emulating old slower hardware or something. This is all assuming that there isn't a bottleneck I'm not aware of in xboxhdm's linux image. If I'm wrong about that, I'm all ears.Ĭurrently I'm investigating trying to mount additional drives in XboxHDM in QEMU from the host OS with the goal of being able to connect an additional Xbox drive and/or an OS formatted drive (FAT32/NTFS). Unless I'm mistaken, XboxHDM's linux image seems to be the most capable way of interfacing with Xbox hard drives.

At the moment it seems like FATX support is very very limited if you want to use a PC and not actual Xbox hardware. Is this tool intended for xbox 360 drives only or something? Maybe my USB/SATA adapter isn't compatible with it?ĭid some more poking around on this subject. I could never get Party Buffalo to recognize my drives.

Related: Linux FATX Filesystem Driver - Read-only - by mborgerson & ldotsfan: Xboxhdm only recognizes the CD drive and doesn't know what to do with my external drive. I've tried mounting a virtual disk image that just points to my external HDD but didn't get anywhere there either. It has a folder where it references files that can be copied to a FATX drive but if I drop in over 700mb of files it hangs when qemu boots. I've also experimented with ldotsfan's Xboxhdmusb23 tool to no avail. I know there's xplorer360 but that seems to choke with thousands of files.

My question is this: is there a way to transfer data to FATX formatted Xbox drives connected to a PC? Are there native FATX drivers for Windows or Linux? Is HDD imaging the only way to achieve modern transfer speeds? Copying via FTP at 11MB/s is painfully slow compared to the ~120MB/s I get over USB 3. I know I can make an image of a 2TB drive, but sometimes I'm building a 1TB or smaller drive and want to copy select data over. Anyways, I've started using disk imaging as a means of modding stock drives and after experiencing those high transfer speeds, it made me really crave those speeds when building the occasional 2TB drive. I recently picked up a USB 3 adapter that accepts SATA + IDE/PATA hard drives and I've been using that with success to format Xbox drives and other basic tasks. I know this has been talked about before but I'm wondering if any developments have been made in in the past few years. Did some searching and can't find an answer to this that isn't from 8 years ago.
