The Cable is slightly easier, but is expensive for something you'll only use once.

If you instead use a USB flashdrive or USB HDD, & prep. it as 360 storage, you can use it to transfer your content, & use it again & again for general 360 storage or format it for re-using on your PC.

The max. size for USB storage is 16GB, but you can use a bigger drive than that, it just makes a 360 specific 16GB section.


I used a 16GB drive to transfer all my saves, & all my DLC, when I moved from an Elite to a Slim. All I needed to do afterwards was use the licence transfer tool, & also re-install the game discs.

Beware: there are some saves which cannot be moved using USB, however I didn't have that problem with any of mine.
