Any particualr elements? Games saves I assume, as everything else can be re-downloaded at no charge. I believe there's a device called X-Sata that connects to a PC that may be what you're after.

I bought one of these by Team Xecuter.

Works a treat.

A memory card is the easy option. Used one to transfer my save games when I got a Elite concole.

Re: Xbox 360 backup

Has anyone with the X-SATA actually tried a 'restore' of anything? Did it work? I've hear horrible things about them.

I've also heard they suck.

I've heard that unless you restore to the HDD it came off it doesn't work, and chances are you would want to restore onto a different HDD.
