Having troubles with mine too (not a slim, just got a 120GB HDD that I want to transfer to). With you guys' issue though, it sounds like the Xbox just formatted it as a USB external drive. When i was looking for a manual option to transfer, it saw my harddrive as a unformatted USB drive. When I went to format it, I noticed that it was only going to format to a 16GB max. So try formatting your drives again as main Xbox drives. Connect the 250GB drive (not connected by the transfer cable) and boot up the Xbox again. Go to System Settings > Console Settings > System Info and write down your serial number Then go to System Settings > Memory and with your Harddrive selected press Y for Device Options choose Format and enter the serial number when prompted. That should reformat your drive as a main Xbox drive. Reboot with the 20GB drive connected now and the 250GB drive on the transfer cable and see if it prompts you (doesn't for me... I think the cable's at fault) Only reason I'm thinking this is you guys' issue is that you keep mentioning that the Xbox sees your drive as 16GB Does anyone know if the older Xboxs updated to NXE should be able to transfer without the disc... or is that just a Xbox slim thing?
