Here's the deal, i have a modded xbox 360 with pirated games and i used to play live until i got banned a couple of months ago.

I have bought an brand new 360 now,... and i am not modding it, and play only original games to play on XBLive.

Because i bought an arcade version, i wanted to use that old harddrive for downloading new maps etc (COD4).

Is there still a possibility that i will get banned... because of some savegames/achievements and data from that modded 360, on the harddrive, and plugging it in on my new one?

No, you wont get banned by just using the Harddrive. Its logged on which xbox the save games were logged IFAIK

Ok, i hope so.

So you are saying:

Some of my savegames / achievements (which resulted in a banned console) are logged on that harddrive as "console A", and now, plugging it on another console, results in a log on the harddrive as "console B" ... so no worries you think?

Yes. You should have no problems with using the hard drive on you new xbox.

It bans the console only, nothing else. Unless you have modified content on your hard drive you will be fine.

I think i am banned because of playing some early pre-release games, and their savegames and achievements.

Those are on that HDD.

You can not be banned for using a HDD from a banned console, MS only bans the console. I have been using a HDD from my first xbox that was banned in 07 on my Elite and have not had any problems.

I too got banned from Xbox Live for using a modded 360,
and im also a bit dodgy about using my new (Legit) 360 with my old HD from the modded one,, i know that its the console that gets banned, not the hd/joypad/ or even the hdmi cable lol.

My question is this
What got me banned,, was it playing a game to early or having an achievment for a certain game at a certain time, or using badly ripped games ?, example.... im using a legit copy of game A, but use a save from banned xbox HD(and have associated the old drive with the new console), as MS get ready for wave 4 of bans, they see that i have a dodgy save coming from an un-banned console, wouldnt that flag me up for a ban, considering the console is reged as a new console.
MS are getting better at sniffing fare dodgers, im just worried that they can get more info from your consoles hd, you hd has a log file on it...

What exactly do you mean with ( modified content ) do you mean using a save taken from a dodgy game,, or spoofing Lost and Damned onto you hd from your pc, where the legit copy can only be downloaded from Xbox Marketplace (which i have, best points ive ever spent)

Any thoughts ?

Hi, well we have always had 2 xbox consoles, my brother got console banned on one for using the data cable to mod gamerscore upto about 289,000 or something stupid like that and to add glitches to cod:waw so you can fly etc. This resulted in that console being banned. So i contacted xbox support and explained the situation and asked if i could use the hard drive on the other xbox and they said that is absolutley fine. So i was did it and was all fine and then a few days ago the other xbox got console banned aswell. So contacted xbox support and they said there is nothing they can do. So basically left with 2 doorstops. There were no other physical modifications to either of the consoles.

people, just read. WE don't know what gets you banned for sure. most likely bad rips.

If you've done any searching at all, you would see using a banned hd on a non banned console won't get you banned.

search for your answers first.

Just got my first console ban after this last 360 update. I have always checked my rips with abgx360 but I let my son play a wave 4 game (Bakugan) under a gamer profile that did not have a live account thinking that wouldn't trigger a ban, but looks like I was wrong.
