Defragmenters, disk checkers, and other related utilities WILL NOT work properly on FATXplorer-mounted partitions. Please do not try them.

Easily configure integration. All you need to do is select a drive letter and what partition you want mounted.

Full exploration.

Open and edit your files in your favorite applications. No need to transfer it to your PC, edit, and transfer back. FATXplorer eliminates all those extra steps.

Content View

The Content View is an extremely robust and linear list view of all Xbox 360 content on your storage device’s Content Partition. The Content View was designed for beginners who do not know their way around the file system, but can be very useful to more experienced users as well. Early development of this view focused around the way the Xbox 360 dashboard displays content. With additional research, it was found that FATXplorer could handle all the content at once without any significant performance drawbacks. FATXplorer can load large amounts of content in a time span that may surprise you. The Content View is fast, friendly, and contains very powerful filtering features to make content searching a breeze.

Content Adding

The Add Content button allows you to add content items. What is special about this feature is that it automatically determines where to put the selected content items. For example, if you select a Halo 3 map-pack file, FATXplorer will know to put it in the area that the Xbox 360 console puts game DLC. You do not have to create the folder structure, FATXplorer does all that behind the scenes for you. Just provide FATXplorer with the file and it will handle the rest.

Content Extraction

The right-click Extract button allows you to extract your content items to your PC for backup or editing purposes.

Content Deletion

The right-click Delete button allows you to delete old or unused content items to free up space. The Xbox 360 dashboard doesn’t list some content, so you can get rid of specific cache or hidden game items as well!

Small/Large Views

Content items contain thumbnail images of size 32×32. By default, FATXplorer scales the images down to allow more content to be displayed in the initial list. However, you can change the size of the thumbnail by using the View menu.

Show Cache Items

The Show Cache Items check button tells FATXplorer whether to show/hide the contents of your Cache folder. Cached files can include title updates, gamer pictures, and system updates.

Delete Empty Folders

The Delete Empty Folders button goes through the entire Content folder and delete any folder that does not have any subitems. This is an extremely useful cleanup tool since the Xbox 360 console does not automatically delete these folders once all content items are removed from a folder.

Clear Cache

The Clear Cache button allows you to delete all items in the system cache folder/partition.

Property Pane

The Property Pane displays all of the selected content item’s internal metadata/properties. This can provide you with an interesting look at the inside of your content to discover hidden text or values you may find useful.

Content Sorting/Filtering

FATXplorer provides an easy-to-use filtering and organization system to help you find specific content quickly and efficiently. For more information on filtering, sorting, and other tips/tricks, see Content View Tips and Tricks.

Other Features

For gamer profiles, the Gamertag is read from the Account file and displayed as the STFS name. This is also used to identify the owners of game saves.

FATXplorer logs content items that appear to be corrupt/unusable. If FATXplorer finds any, a yellow alert box will appear at the top. The alert tells you what items are corrupt and provides you with the option to delete them.

The free space bar on the menu provides a real-time look at the available space on your Content Partition. You can use this to accurately gauge what content is taking up the most space. It is updated every time an item is deleted/added.

Start Page

The Start Page is what you see when you start FATXplorer and is your portal to core features.

Information

The Information tab provides you with a friendly introduction message, the status of your current license, the status of the integration driver, and FATXplorer’s logo to brighten your day. (If you want a copy of it, feel free to right click the website’s banner and save it to your PC.)

News Feed

The News Feed tab provides you with FATXplorer news. It obtains the latest news from the FATXplorer website as soon as you select it.

Devices

The Devices tab provides you with a list of your connected storage devices. This is where you integrate your storage device’s partitions into Windows or open them in a FATXplorer view.

Toolkit View

The Toolkit View is a collection of file systems tools and utilities presented in a nice Microsoft-styled tile layout.

Device Information

The Device Information tool provides you with an option to edit your storage device’s name (name.txt) and see the size, type, path, and XDK version.

Partition Information

The Partition Information tool provides you with space usage and other technical details.

Device Backup/Restore

The Device Backup/Restore tool provides you with an easy way to completely back up your entire storage device to a file. Backup files can be invaluable in the event of an accidental format, extreme data loss, or hardware failure.

Problems and Warnings

The Problems and Warnings tool provides you with a list of detected problems and any warnings you should be aware of.

Device Analyzer
*Paid editions only!

The Device Analyzer tool provides you with a quick and easy tool that analyzes your entire storage device and lists the most fragmented items into a list for you to view. Anything fragmented more than 1% is listed.

NOTE: Defragment entire device is currently a placeholder and will be enabled in a future FATXplorer update.

Security Sector Tools

The Security Sector Tools allow you to view/edit your HDD’s Security Sector.

Sector Tools

The Sector Tools allow you to read/write from/to specific sectors on your storage device.

Cluster Tools

Drive

The Cluster Tools allow you to read/write from/to specific clusters on your storage device’s partitions.

Configuration Data Tools

The Configuration Data Tools allow you to view/edit your USB’s Configuration Data. You can view your USB’s device ID, tweak the performance rating, and see if it is Xbox 360 console or manufacturing formatted.

Install Optimized System Folders
*Paid editions only!

Is your Xbox guide slow? Does it take forever to load content? Don’t go out and buy a new storage device when installing optimized system folders could be the solution! For more information on optimized system folders, see Increasing Xbox 360 Performance with Optimized System Folders.

Partition Tools
*Paid editions only!

The Partition Tools allow you to perform a variety of operations on your storage device’s partitions. It allows you to backup and restore the boot sector, allocation table, file area, and the entire partition. You can also format/reformat it and delete it.

On some storage devices, there may be a “URL Cache”. This is used by the Xbox LIVE service to cache URLs for the marketplace. Sometimes this cache may become corrupt and can result in strange behavior when viewing and downloading marketplace content. FATXplorer’s Partition Tools allow you to wipe this cache and force the Xbox 360 console to make it again. It is recommended that you clear the cache at least a few times a year for optimal marketplace performance.

Recovery View
*All features of this view are 100% free. The paid version will NOT enhance it in any way.

The Recovery view is where you will be spending your time if you are trying to recover your deleted data. The Recovery View is a very simple browser that allows you to browse your storage device’s partitions efficiently. Deleted data recovery is a tricky process, but the Recovery View was designed to make it very easy for you to get your data back with little frustration.

There are several right click items that become visible when you select an item.

The first one is Recover. This option will allow you to extract your deleted item to your PC.

The second one is “What are the chances of recovering this item?”. Once selected, FATXplorer runs a quick scan and can determine whether the original parts of the item have been overwritten with new data. This is a very useful tool for determining what data can be saved and what cannot.

The third is the “What is” option. There are three possibilities. If you right click a profile folder, this option can tell you what Gamertag owns the folder, if it still exists inside. If you right click a title folder, this option will connect to Xbox.com and try to find what game it is. If you right click a content type folder, it will simply tell you what kind of content is supposed to be in it. These options can come in handy if you aren’t familiar with the Xbox 360 content organization system.

The Recovery View may not be enough for most people. Every data recovery case is different. You are more than welcome to contact FATXplorer support with any questions regarding deleted data recovery. Remote support options are available to you as well if you want a professional to recover your data.

For more information on deleted data recovery, see Data Recovery.

Miscellaneous points and other features

How to use
------------

HddHacker supports two flashing modes, Auto and Manual. Typing HDDHackr at a DOS prompt
will start auto mode. In auto mode all hard drives will be detected automatically.
In manual mode you can enter all the parameters used for flashing by hand.

The following help screen is displayed if you start HddHacker with a wrong number of
arguments:

HDDHackr [C|D|F|R] [PORT] [DRIVE POS] [SECTOR FILE] [RESTORE FILE]
C: Create Partitions 0/2/3
D: Dump sector 16-22 from XBOX360 HDD to file
F: Flash Western Digital firmware
R: Restore Western Digital firmware
PORT: Port to send command to e.g. 09F0
DRIVE POS: A0 for Master, B0 for Slave
SECTOR FILE: Sector dump file e.g. HDDSS.BIN
RESTORE FILE: Firmware restore file e.g. UNDO.BIN

Example for create, dump, flash and restore:
HDDHackr C 09F0 A0
HDDHackr D 09F0 A0 HDDSS.BIN
HDDHackr F 09F0 A0 HDDSS.BIN UNDO.BIN
HDDHackr R 09F0 A0 UNDO.BIN

Explanation of the Parameters
-------------------------------

[C|D|F|R]
---------
- this will set the mode of operation, it is recommended to first try to dump the XBOX360
hard drive data, if the dump will fail, it is highly unlikely that a flash or restore
will succeed on the Western Digital drive

[PORT]
--------
- the port to which the Hard Drive is connected, a port number should always be entered
in hexadecimal and have 4 hex digits, valid ports are: 01F0, 09F0, .....
- this option can be used if your PCI adapter card or on board SATA ports are
not identified by the auto mode

[DRIVE POS]
-------------
- on SATA ports this value is always A0, cause you can only connect a master drive to
a SATA port, so for SATA you will always type A0 here

[SECTOR FILE]
---------------
- name of the sector 16-22 dump file better known as HDDSS.BIN

[RESTORE FILE]
----------------
- name of the firmware restore file e.g. UNDO.BIN

Using HddHacker in auto or manual mode
--------------------------------

* Dumping the HDDSS.BIN file *
Boot to MS-DOS from a writeable medium (like a floppy or UBS Stick).
Connect an *original* Xbox360 HDD to your SATA controller. Make sure it is the only
SATA device that is connected. Now run 'HDDHackr D [PORT] A0 HDDSS.BIN' and it will create
the file 'HDDSS.BIN' and save it to the path you've started HddHacker from.

* Creating Partitions 0/2/3 *
The Partition 0/2/3 will be created to make the drive compatible with 'Xplorer360' and XBOX360 Console.
In manual-mode you have to type 'HDDHackr C [PORT] A0'.

* Flashing your Western Digital drive *
Turn off your PC and connect the Western Digital hard drive. Boot to MS-DOS again.
Type 'HDDHackr F [PORT] A0 HDDSS.BIN UNDO.BIN' from the same path you have saved the HDDSS.BIN
file to. This will create an 'UNDO.BIN' file that you need if you want to undo the hack
and flash your firmware back to the original state.

* Restoring your WD to original state *
If you don't want to use your modded WD HDD in your XBOX360 anymore and you want to
flash it back to its original size/state, then you can now do so. Boot to MS-DOS and
run 'HDDHackr R [PORT] A0 UNDO.BIN'. This will use the UNDO.BIN file you created before to
restore the drive to its original state.

* Vendor Intro Power Brute for misflashed drives *
To enter the recovery mode you should boot to MS-DOS, connect your hard drive to PC and type
'HDDHackr R [PORT] A0 UNDO.BIN'. If the hard drive is misflashed you will be prompted with:
'Western Digital Vendor Intro failed on port [PORT]'
'Do you want to resend the command until the drive responds (Y/N)?'
Press YES, disconnect the hard drive from power and connect it again.
You should get Status 0x50 and the drive will be reflashed.

* Adjust IntelliPark Timer, WD only *
IntelliPark is not that intelligent. In fact, with default settings it parks the heads
after 8 seconds of inactivity. This means, depends of your OS and usage pattern the drive will reach
it's designed lifetime in very short time. Meaning of IntelliPark values.
Resolution is 0.1 seconds from 0.1 to 12.8 seconds.
Resolution is 30.0 seconds from 30.0 to 3810.0 seconds.
Note, times between 12.8 and 30.0 seconds will be set to 30.0 seconds.
Default timer is 8.0 seconds, recommended timer is 300.0 seconds.
To disable timer type 0 seconds.


FAQ
-----

Q. Is it true that in several cases, booting PC with connected HDD
will change LBA size of my hard drive and it will no longer work in x360?
A. Yes, most modern mainboard/BIOS manufacturer modify LBA size,
they cut the harddrive for HPA and store additional BIOS data at the end of a hard disk.
So if you have such mainboard that uses this technology, do not have the a hard drive
powered on during BIOS detection, it will break XBOX360 compatibility.
To get the x360 compatibility back, simply reflash the HDDSS.BIN.


Q. I heard lot of people having problems with the new 2010/2011 models.
Does it matter wich moddel I have????
A. The 2010/2011 drive are the same, lots of people have hacked them perfectly.
99% of problems appear to be SATA chipset or BIOS configuration.


Q. Will this tool allow me to connect a 500GB drive to my x360 ?
A. No. The information on sector 16 is signed and can't be changed. You can
only use the size where you have a valid signature for. In otherwords, if a
bigger HDD comes out, then you can use that signature.


Q. With which HDD's does this work ?
A. As of version 1.40, it now works with all sizes and versions of the
WesternDigital Scorpio Series.


Q. Do I need the same size WD HDD as the size on sector 16 states ?
A. No. You can use bigger HDD's, but you can't use more than the size stated
in sector 16. You can NOT use smaller HDD's than the size on sector 16 states.
For example, you can use a 40GB HDD with a sector 16 from a 20GB HDD, but
not the other way around of course.


Q. Can I use the HDD in my PC again ?
A. Of course. The tool comes with an 'restore' option, that will restore the
original size. For example, you use a 40GB WD HDD, you used HDDSS.BIN from
a valid xbox360 20GB HDD, so the tool will transform your 40GB HDD into a 20GB HDD.
However, you can restore it to 40GB anytime you want with the restore option.


Q. I lost my UNDO.BIN file, can I use it from another drive ?
A. There's no guarantee this will work. It might kill your drive.
Using a UNDO.BIN from a different model (e.g. LAT/RST) will kill your drive for sure.


Q. I have a XBOX360 Core/Arcade/Slim version and want to use this hack to buy a cheap HDD.
But how do i connect it ?
A. If you don't have a Premium/Elite/Slim, you can make the HDD internal. One great tutorial
that will show you how to do this: http://www.xboxhacker.net/index.php?topic=9542.0


Q. The tool doesn't detect my HDD !
A. First, make sure you are running it from real MS-DOS, not from a DOS box under windows.
If the HddHacker does not autodetect your SATA controller then let us know about it.


Q. The HddHacker says the UNDO.BIN file already exists.
A. If you previously made an UNDO.BIN file, then you should keep that one. There's no
need to create another one. Keep in mind that the UNDO.BIN represents the current state
of the drive.


Q. Could you do this for my Seagate, Maxtor, Samsung or whatever drive too ?
A. Yes, but I don't have plans to do so. It is a lot of work to convert this tool
for usage with other brands and don't think it is worth the trouble.


Q. Where can I donate ?
A. Nowhere. Just enjoy!
