I just bought an xbox elite, is there anyway I can transer all my info such as my game rankings onto

the new xbox? I now I can swap out hard drives, but I dont want to because the elite has a 120gig and

I want to keep that one.

Thanks

you know you could have just bought a new 120gb hard drive right?  when you buy those they come with a data transfer cable and disc. then you link the 2 xbox360s together and transfer the files.  I think there are some aftermarket devices that allow you to backup your 360 data onto your computer, but I'm not sure how well they work.

 

edit: and your gamerscore and rankings are on your xboxlive account.  when you start up the new Elite unit it will allow you to Recover your xboxlive account.  Then you can re-download things from the marketplace.  also another option for transfering gamesaves would be getting a memory card.  I think they make them in  64, 128, and 256mb.  and as far as i know you can transfer files from your HD onto them.  Most gamesaves arent that big, the only huge files i have on my 360 are Videos and Demos and you should be able to re-download those anyways.

Its easy. If you bought an elite, you can fill out a form below and put your serial number and Xbox will send you a transfer kit for free

The transfer kit will allow you to move all the info from your 20gb to your new 120gb
