How do you transfer all saved data from one xbox 360 hard drive to another?

I had a normal xbox 360 but then bought a new xbox 360 elite for my dad as he wanted one. He doesn't play many games therefore the 120 gb (or however big it is) hard drive is pointless. How do i transfer all my saved games %26amp; data from my harddrive to the elite hard drive?How do you transfer all saved data from one xbox 360 hard drive to another?
Thought i answered this? but ok, 2 ways, all you need is some money. You need to either buy it on ebay, amazon, or any online place. OR you can go to xbox.com and from there just order it, get it for free and just pay shipping, your choice.








hope this helps








PS. the other person who is above me, Mlk or whatever, you can not use a flash drive. Microsoft didn't want any other hardware then their own to really be used for the consol so i am SURE that you cannot do that. Transfer cable is the only way using a hard drive or purchasing a memory card, but truthfully the hard drive is the better buy.How do you transfer all saved data from one xbox 360 hard drive to another?
The quickest way would be to use a data transfer cable. You can get them from Microsoft and since you have an Elite, it will be free. It does take about two weeks to get to you though. Once you have it, you can transfer everything at once to completely wipe your old drive back to factory settings. Two other options are to buy a memory card or if you have Xbox Live with the recent update, you can use a flash drive (up to 16GB) to move everything. The memory cards are small though so you'd need to make several passes to move everything and large DLC like map packs will not fit so you have to re-download those. If you have a larger flash drive, you may be able to move everything in as few as two passes.
There is a Data Transfer Cable for Xbox 360 Hard Disk Drive that you can buy. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001O3Q鈥?/a> A very usefull tool that you will end up sharing with friends. Cheap too.
