This is going to sound really stupid but I was making a boot USB to flash my new HDD to put in my 360, while having a spare connected to a SATA device and the damn thing recognized the wrong drive and erased the FW from the 360's HDD. HDDHACKR only works on Western Digital, so is it possible to flash my 20GB Seagate HDD back to 360's FW?

I knew if there was anyone that would know, it'd be you guys.

According to a recent discussion, it's not possible even with original drives. Here's a link to the discussion:

It can be done, but you will need your original hddss bin file. you cant download one from the net, the serial from the bin file have to match the hdd.

Damn. Damn Damn. Oh well, I bought the "broken" HDD on eBay for 13 bucks so "no biggy" as the kids say, if there's any progress in this subject, feel free to msg me about it.
