    I'm about to upgrade my 360, but want to save data off it first. I'm trading it in with HMV, but they don't offer a transfer service.

    Can you plug it into a PC using the USB ports? Or do you nee another XBox beside it.

    If your console got the latest xbox dashboard upgrade then you can just use one (or several) USB memory sticks. Downloaded content such as games and addons can be redownloaded after you transfer the licenses to the new console at no extra cost - google 'xbox 360 license transfer' to find out how to do this. Keep in mind you will need your new console.

    Installed games can be reinstall. Really, all you need to carry over are saves & profiles.

    I used a simple USB memory key. It worked a treat. Why bother with all those cables etc, when the key works so well. :)

    Nice, and a good thing Microsoft added that option in the update.
