5.0 out of 5 stars Worked as intended, what can I say?

It was finally time to upgrade from my old, jet-engine-loud fat model to the newer Xbox 360 slim, and thus faced one of those situations profoundly frustrating to people as cheap as me - I didn't want to spend a lot of time and effort migrating hundreds of saves and dozens of games from my old Xbox to the new, but I also was loathe to spend 20 dollars on a cable I would need exactly once and then never again.

So, Amazon to the rescue. The cable didn't even come in packaging, merely a green plastic bag, so I was a tiny bit skeptical. And yet, it included the CD, the cable, and brief instructions, which worked flawlessly and made the migration a painless process. Awesome.

I still had to spend a few bucks on this item I'll never need again, but that's Microsoft's fault, not the cable itself. I'm just happy I was able to do it for less than half the price than if I'd bought the official Microsoft cable. That's enough for five stars from me.

I purchased this product as I was upgrading from my old 20 GB pro to the new 250 GB slim. I decided on the cable to transfer over everything instead of using memory sticks as I wanted to get the licenses for my DLC transferred over as well.

Setup was a snap as all you need to do is place the old hard drive on one end of the cable and plug the other end into a 360 with the new hard drive, then follow the prompts that come up.

It took only about 7-8 minutes for all the data to be transferred over, and everything came over intact. I did not even need to recover any account profiles that were on the old hard drive.

All in all, I was very satisfied with the results and now intend to see how long it will take to fill up my new hard drive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worked Just As It Should
Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2011

Before buying one of these transfer kits I read reviews of the ones that sell for $4-8 here on Amazon. Some people said they worked fine, other warned that they were bad knockoffs. I didnt want to risk wasting money so I just bought this official one. Its a little more but it works great and didnt give me any trouble. Follow the directions and it will work recognize right away and transfer all your data. I noticed it seems to have a fairly fast read speed but what slows it down is moving different files. For example, it could move one 4GB file fairly quickly, but eight 500MB files would take it noticeably longer. This made it annoying to move over themes and gamer pics.

Also note this is for old harddrives only. The ones from non-slim consoles.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple to Use

This has to be one of the least painful data transfers I've ever done with this device. I had the original Xbox 360 and had just purchased the newest Xbox 360 slim (glossy black) and needed a way to transfer the files over. So I order this item and I was up and transferring immediately.

First, take your old Xbox harddrive and detach it from the console.
Plug in the old harddrive onto the data cable and insert the USB side into your new Xbox
Turn on your new Xbox and it automatically detects the cable on startup and gives you three options
Choose your option and press "Start"
And BOOM, you're done

And now, I'm going to sell it back to GameStop or some other place.

I probably would've given this 3 stars if I had purchased this at the full $20 or so dollars for this as I honestly don't need it more than just this one time but I bought it used for less than $10.

Skeptical purchaser
1.0 out of 5 stars Cable is not compatible
Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2011

Like so many others on here, I followed the simple instructions given to perform a data transfer. Take out the old hard drive, plug it in to cable, connect it to the xbox with the new hard drive in place. An auto prompt should come up. It didn't. I go into system config to do a manual data transfer, the new hard drive is coming up as a usb device. So out of curiosity I swap hard drives, my old hard drive is also coming up as a USB device. Clearly this cable does not work as it needs to. To make matters worse, the site clearly lists the product as made by microsoft. This product was quite obviously not made by microsoft when I got it. It is a chinese knockoff. This product did not work for me and I highly recommend you do not purchase it from any of the other sellers other than Amazon as they are the only ones that can properly vouch for their product. If it is the same product as the one I received (bought it from master group on the amazon.com site) I recommend returning it immediately to get a refund or replacement for an actual xbox 360 data transfer cable. false advertising is illegal and Amazon really needs to ensure that it's 3 party sellers are selling genuine articles when they market things under the Microsoft name.

3.0 out of 5 stars Did the job, but not without worry
Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2013

I just upgraded from my old 20GB to a new 250GB HDD for my arcade style 360. It eventually did the job, but I got very nervous that it wasn't going to work. The first time I tried the transfer process I did not use the disk that comes with it, but the 360 automatically asks if you want to transfer the data. However, when I did this, the transfer process did not recognize any of the data in the old HDD and would not transfer anything. I turned off the 360, turned it back on, put the disc that comes with the cable in the 360, and then plugged the transfer cable back in and ran the process through the disc. This way it finally worked and everything transferred ok. The transfer cable does not fit tight on the old HDD that you are transferring from, so make sure it isn't sitting in a spot where someone might bumb into it in the middle of the transfer process. Also, move your profile and really important game saves to another memory source (internal hard drive, memory stick) so you don't lose them in case the transfer process doesn't go well.

The instructions are easy - make sure you have the latest dashboard update and you'll be prompted whether you want to copy from the drive cable to the to the XBOX or vice versa when you plug the cable in. Everything that can be copied is tagged by default. you can select/deselect whatever you like from a list.

As expected, this is an official Microsoft product and not one of the cheap knock-offs that requires files to be transfered to a PC and then back again. All you need are the drives and the XBOX.
