There is 4 options you have.

1: Xbox 360 Transfer Cable
Scam Microsoft out of getting a Xbox 360 Transfer Cable
(If money is rare in your circumstance, try and get one of these)

2: xPort
Purchase xPort, a 3rd party piece of hardware allowing your Xbox 360 Harddrive to "dock" into a station
(If your 360 is quite far away from your computer, I would recommend this one since you can just plug your harddrive into it)

3: xSata
Purchase xSata, a 3rd party piece of hardware that connects between your Xbox 360 and the harddrive.
(I would use this one if your 360 is right next to your computer, and you have the money to spend)

4: Take apart your HDD
This is the most risky, it involves taking apart your 360 Harddrive in order to get to the source SATA drive in which you can use a normal sata cable.
(I would do this if your poor, and understand a great deal of how electronics work and how to be safe around them, so you don't fry your harddrive with static electricity)

If it matches that, you are at the right tutorial.

Samsung Drives Ok, this drive type is very easy. You will need the following:
[list][*]A compatible chipset (trial and error works, you can't mess anything up when just reading)[*]A SATA cable.[*]This download - yungbol's Sammy kit.  yungbol__s_kit.rar (2.33MB)
Number of downloads: 5[*]A 32-bit OS.[/list] Step 1: Install PortIO32. Run the PortIO32.exe. If it says use manual install, then go to Start > Control Panel > Add New Hardware > Choose manually select file > Show all Devices > Have Disk > point to the file inside yungbol's kit\JungleFlasher with FW\manual install. Install that driver.



Step 2: Shut down your computer. Hook your Xbox360 up like you normally would when playing (power cord and video cord). The Xbox needs to be opened, and next to your computer. The SATA cable in back of the drive should be unplugged, and insert the one that is connected to your computers SATA chipset like so:



Step 3: Now, power on your PC then wait a few seconds until it boots up and turn on the Xbox 360.

Step 4: Open up JungleFlasher.exe. Navigate to the MTKFlash32 tab. Search your I/O ports for the one that has your ms25 or ms28 in the Device Properties. Once you find it, it should look like so:



Step 5: Once your info is there, click Sammy unlock. If you cannot find your info, change SATA ports, and if that doesn't work, then your chipset is not compatible or your PORTIO32 isn't installed.

Step 6: Make sure the drive is in Vendor Mode (0x70) and returned a good flash chip property; you can check under Flash Chip Properties, Drive Properties should show "Drive in Vendor Mode!"



Step 7: Click Read. Once it reads, it will ask you to save it. Save it somewhere safe, this is your original firmware file. Keep this. When it ask you to auto-load, click yes. It will bring you to the Firmtool32 tab.

Step 8: Confirm your keys are the same, and your info. Once that, click Save to file. After you save, navigate back to the MTKFlash32 tab.



Step 9: Click Write. It will erase, and write your new firmware. Once that is verified OK, click Outro / ATA reset.

Step 10: YOU ARE DONE! Disconnect everything, hook it back up, and go burn some games!
