FTP the C, E, F, and G folders to your PC, you might not have G though. And then FTP them back to your new HDD.

Well as long as your PC has enough space you can just FTP everything over at once, otherwise just do 20GBs at a time. Then FTP those 20GBs back to the new HDD, delete them on your PC and FTP another 20GBs from your old HDD over, repeat. Most importantly FTP the system files first before you FTP the games over.

You're gonna have to switch the HDDs back and forth, you can't just replace the DVD drive with another HDD cuz Xbox needs the DVD drive to boot.
