Hey, wasn't sure whether to put this here or in the windows on mac forum. But basically need to know if there is a method of accessing the 360's HDD from an iMac (3.06GHz model) without using XSATA® or xsata cables as, you know, there isn't a way to connect xsata cables to the iMac, as far as I know anyway.
Thanks.

Fairly sure that is intended for things going in the opposite direction (sharing content to the xbox -- not getting content off the xbox)

I think you're right! I have Connect360 and it provides no functionality to access the Xbox HD.

I must have posted that on cocktail night as it's pretty obvious (as others here have said) that is not what your intention is.

What you may possibly look into is Xplorer360. http://www.xbox-scene.com/xbox1data/sep/EEFAZAlEpAHLgaWKhN.php

However I think you would need a custom SATA cable to run it from your iMac to the Xbox - not sure if they are out there or not.
