Transfer Data from one XBOX to another????

I was wondering if there is an EASY way to transfer data from one XBOX to another.

I was thinking of picking up another one, since I'm getting the Dirty Disc Errors, and it's crazy for me to spend $90 to get it fixed, when I can get another one for about $80 more with games and another controller, that I actually do need.

Can you link them and transfer that way? I don't want to buy memory cards if possible.....

I'm sure there is a hack to do this, definitely w/ a mod chip, maybe using the music mixer software.

Just buy a memory card for $5 at Blockbuster or Target or Ebay and do it with that. I always try to keep my 2 xboxes synced.

Is that an MS Memory Card you mention, or a third party one?

Some games don't allow you to copy the save files though. So be warned. Burnout 2 is one, Knights of the Old Republic is another.

KOTOR will actually let you move your saves but they are too big to fit on a standard memory card. KOTOR saves are about 1600 blocks and a standard memory card is only 502 blocks.

If you happen to have an XBox to USB adapter and a USB drive you can move them.

Several websites sell the Xbox to USB adapters.

Tried my Target and they don't have any MS/Third Party Memory Cards at all. Gonna try Blockbuster tomorrow, thanks for the info.

The KotOR saves are locked, even if you have a big enough memory card.
