So, I have two Xbox 360 hard drives, I have a bunch of digital games on one of them (call it hard drive B) and I want to put them on the hard drive I currently use, I want to know how to get the digital games themselves onto the hard drive I am using (call it hard drive A). Takk.

Are you using the removable hdd or external hdd?

Are you using the removable hdd or external hdd?
both of them are the ones you remove from the side, the internal i believe it is called
so HDD it would be then?

If it’s the same model 360 (slim), just remove the hdd and slot it into the other 360. If it’s different model, you’ll have to transfer the games to an external hdd or redownload the games.

okay, i will try, takk

So to clarify you want to transfer the games from one internal HDD to another (to use on the same xbox?)
Because if it’s on the same xbox you would have to have both plugged in at the same time, and then I’m not fully sure either if games can be moved (might work for some?)

yes, correct, i was thinking, i could have the one with all the digital games on it in, then transfer them to a external hard drive, keep the external hard drive plugged in to the xbox, then swap the HDD that was in (the one that has the digital games on it) for the HDD i want to put the games on, then just transfer them from the external hard drive
apologize if it is hard to follow

Yes, so, I have an Xbox 360 that I play on, with its hard drive, but i was given another xbox 360 and it had the second hard drive with a bunch of digital games, that you dont need a disk for, so i was thinking of transferring the games over to my xbox HDD that i play on
because the one i was given has games like Mafia II, and a bunch more
and they are digital, which i think means they were purchased off the marketplace when it was up
the last account active ON the xbox was 2014

Oh haha I thought you were transferring like own stuff on the same console, yeah this won’t work
Also we won’t really help with stuff you don’t own either

ohh, would it be smarter for me to just plug in the HDD with the digital games and just use my account to make a profile on that HDD
because the xbox was given to me by my friend, so its his games on it
or was anyway lol

That wouldn’t work either as it’s not your games
