Hello guys, I tried to change large hard drive by use Chimp application, but show this error message. Could you help me? I am not sure what step is wrong. My process step as below: 1. Console turn-off, plug new hard drive power. (no connect IDE bus) 2.Console turn-on, my console already softmod by hotswapping 3.Run Chimp application 4.Take out DVD IDE bus and plug to new hard drive 5.I saw console show some message, should be OK 6.Go to dialog box, but show this message, "slave device can not be locked" And I check program function, slave device function is disable. By the way, before plug new hard drive, I format by FATXplorer. Any mistake of the procedure? Need you help! thanks so much!

using command: "wmic diskdrive get model,name". Results are: Model Name Innostor Ext. HDD USB Device \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE4 fatxplorer 3.0 is not detecting it too.

Hi guys, I can confirm that this device works if you want to make a one to one clone of your XBOX Sata HDD: ORICO 6629US3-C-V1-US-BK USB3.0 to SATA Dual Bay External Hard Drive Docking Station I was able to successfully clone my my 1TB WD HDD for backup purposes: Cloned that with the same exact model. The actual amount of storage used was a little over 700 GB and took under 4 hours. Plugged the cloned HDD in and worked like a charm no issues. Great thing about it is the offline cloning function...so no need to connect it to your PC.

So my friend and I are trying to replace the front panel LEDs with RGB LEDs using a separate microcontroller. We were able to read the status from the current front panel so we can react to error codes properly, so it isn't just a "dumb" LED replacement with an external controller. Our next goal was to send commands over the SMBus to the Arduino (Nano, ATmega328P) we use to control the RGB LEDs. I customized the XBMC code to send data to the new address I defined for the Arduino, in our case we used 0xE9. Since the Wire library of the Arduino already shifts the bits, we set the Arduino's address to 0xE9 too. The thing is, the Xbox sends the signal, but the Arduino isn't reacting to the given address. We already tried to analyze the signal and we can confirm that there is data being sent through the SMBus. OFC we wired up SDA and SCL correctly, we checked twice and since the logic analyzer is able to sniff data, it should be correct. Has anyone ever tried this yet? I've seen a couple of threads talking about controlling Ambilight over the SMBus but it seems like nobody has tried it yet. I guess we are doing something wrong, but we haven't yet figured out what it is that we are missing. Next thing would be buying a proper logic analyzer, but maybe somebody here has some experience and could lead us in the right direction before we spend the money. Is there any more documentation on the SMBus of the Xbox out there? I've just found the documented stuff on the xboxdevwiki. Thanks in advance!
