OK let's begin.....
The image below shows you the simple GUI and a short explanation of each button. The app has been kept purposely simplistic to make this as easy as possible.
DUMP
To extract the HDSS.BIN from an original XBOX 360 Hard Drive
FLASH
Flashes a HDSS.BIN to your 3rd party Hard Drive and saves a copy of the drives original sectors to UNDO.BIN
RESTORE
Restores the Hard Drive's firmware and Max LBA to it's original state using the UNDO.BIN
PARTITION
Partitions and formats the drive to XBOX 360 specifications
Flashing Your Hard Drive With HDSS.BIN
For this tutorial we are using a Western Digital WD2500 BUDT 2.5" SATA HARD DRIVE
Connect your Hard Drive to your computer using the X360USB PRO. You can power the drive using the new Xecuter HDD Adapter Pro or you can use the CK3 HDD Adapter that comes with the CK3 Pro if you have a Phat 360 or you can use a direct SATA Power cable if you have a 360 Slim.
If your X360USB PRO and Hard Drive are working correctly then Windows should detect the drive with no problems.
You must have your X360USB PRO updated to at least v18 firmware and if your Eeprom is up to date then it will display "Eeprom up-to-date !". If your Eeprom needed updating it will tell you that it is being updated and will do everything for you automatically.
Now click the FLASH button
You will be asked to load your HDSS.BIN file. In this case we are going to open a 250GB HDSS.BIN that was extracted from an original 250GB XBOX 360 SLIM drive. Select the correct HDSS file and click OPEN.
You will now see the properties of your connected Western Digital Hard Drive (left column) and the properties of the 250GB HDSS.BIN (right column)
If your connected drive and the loaded HDSS.BIN have different drive properties, you will be asked if you would like to flash the drive so that they match. Click Yes.
You will now be asked to make a backup of your original drive so it can be restored to stock at a later date. It will be saved as UNDO.BIN, simply click SAVE.DO NOT LOSE THIS FILE !
That's it ! All you have to do now is disconnect the power of the drive for 10 seconds and you are ready to partition and format the drive ready for XBOX 360 compatibility. We told you it was easy.
After 10 seconds connect the power back to your hard drive. Windows should now detect the drive with the new drive properties.
Now click on the PARTITION button. The app will scan for a detected XBOX 360 compatible hard drive and auto load it when found.
There is an automatic option to do all the partitions and formatting with one click (Quick Prepare button), however for education purposes we'll just show you how to do the partition and format steps manually. Tick all of partition boxes (0,2 & 3) in the Create partitions column and click CREATE....
Now tick all of the Format partition boxes (0, 2 & 3) and click FORMAT.
You are now finished and ready to use your new Hard Drive.
