Ghost Backup

[ASmiles]

Hi,

I backed up a laptop using norton ghost. I have the backup disks (CD's). Is there a way that i can take the 215GB hard drive from my xbox, which has already been formatted for the XB, put into a regular desktop PC and then put the ghost backup onto that disk. I guess my question is............. is the Windows operating system likely to recognise the disk? I have 40GB to put on there, take some info off the backup and then place back in my xbox????? How might i achieve this please? If anyone knows, i'd be greatful for some help.............

well i have used norton ghost before but never tried making a ghost image of a xbox hdd... but im pretty sure if it works or not that u will have to unlock the xbox hard drive first before sticking it into the pc...

but if all u want to do is duplicate the hdd my recommendation is to... use avalaunch's "xbox to xbox" transfer... but if u want the entire drive to get copied, your gonna need a hard drive of the same of bigger in size thats the data is going to.

good luck

You cant put it into your computer.... and have it work, without changing the file structure/Erasing the contents of the disk.

I'm not exactly sure wha you're asking however.

Are you looking for a place to just store the iso as a backup? if you are.. You can upload the ghost images VIA FTP... store it on the xbox. But you wouldnt be able to run the ghost directly off the xbox...
