Cloning will also partition it exactly the same as the cloned hard drive, so a 1TB SSD cloned from a Series S’s 512GB SSD will show up as a 512GB, not 1TB. You may be able to partition and format the excess space on a PC.

As it's a PCI-e based SSD (NVMe) it interfaces at a different level with the CPU/chipset then SATA. I've seen quite a lot of laptops getting stuck at CPU initialization (no image output or anything) because of a faulty NVMe SSD. Keep that in mind when testing consoles/PCs
@DaTruAndi2 жыл бұрын

While MS didn't "lock" the drive from being read externally, they could have tied the drive/partition table signatures of the SSD to each box SS and SX. That could have potentially been copied to the replacement from the donor by the cloner. That would explain why the SX didn't boot with the donor drive prior to cloning.
@solidsnake64053 жыл бұрын
The fact that it won't boot with another xboxs ssd tells me that it does in fact have a software key lock just like the 360 did. And just like the 360 those hard drives had to be cloned or hacked to get their key on to a different hdd. The xbox one would still boot under these test conditions, but you'd have to reinstall the software from a USB drive or the internet to fully boot.

I doubt that was intentional. If they wanted to stop people from replacing SSDs, they would store SSD's serial number somewhere. Many SSDs differ in size by a bit, that makes it harder to clone them. You probably can find an SSD of the same size and it would probably work ok. I'm not sure if it would work with a bigger SSD. You might have more luck cloning it using a PC instead of this dedicated tool.

Something you could have tried was to clone the Series S drive into the donor drive and try if it works. if it did then the next step could have been to resize the partitions after you clone it and see if it works again.

That was very informative. If I ever get my hands on a new gen xbox I would know what to do

I guess that Microsoft had purposely choose that size of SSD on purpose so that way it would be harder to replace it. Since it isn't a standard NVMe SSD.

is it the same as the one on the PS5?

What? That's a 2230 M.2 form factor. It's pretty much within the M.2 specification.

Interesting video on the technology of the Xbox 20th anniversary. 1 experiment has been missed: namely cloning 1tb from the Xbox SX --> use 500gb SSD from the Xbox SS as source and the clone it on the 1tb SSD. I wonder if it is possible to have the Xbox Series S (SS) equipped with an 1tb SSD.
