I am a huge Gears of War fan. I also use my xbox a lot. So when my girlfriend decided she wanted an xbox, I took the opportunity to upgrade mine so she could inherit my 250gb s model. I picked up the 320gb Gears model. It was a little confusing at first trying to figure what cable I would need to perform a slim to slim data migration. The good people at microsoft support told me what I needed and the AWESOME people on amazon's forums confirmed that this was the correct cable.
The data migration itself is very simple. First plug your new xbox into your tv. Next remove your old hard drive. Then plug one end of the transfer cable into your new USB port and the other end into your old hdd. The screen will automatically prompt you to select what you want to transfer. Finally I went to xbox webpage and searched the license transfer. A few clicks later, my Gears console is loaded with all my movies, music, game saves, game downloads, etc and my girlfriend has a pristine xbox to watch Netflix with (and play Gears!!).
The most difficult part of the process was finding where the slim hdd release was located (a small well disguised latch on the bottom of the xbox). If you can't find the hdd, there are good YouTube tutorials for that.
This cable is good for any transfer between any two xbox 360 consoles.

A word of caution for anyone who needs to transfer over their memory from one Xbox to another; This item will absolutely transfer that memory, but if you or someone you know is planning on still using the memory on that old Xbox then they will no longer have it after the transfer is complete.With this item there is no copy option, no select these items and copy option, just pick what you want transferred and it will do it. Ironically that's what it is made for, but alas copying information would have been a nice addition to a solid product.
Just realize and note that if you or someone you know plans on keeping the information on that other Xbox you may want to invest in a large GB flash drive instead which has the ability to copy.

Best Deals for Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Cable
This newer Xbox 360 hard drive transfer kit is built well and extremely easy to use. Whether you have a new or old 360, the hard drive plugs in without a hitch, and it can then be used as an external drive to copy data to a different console.The thing that makes this device well worth the money is that it's not just for the 360 -ANY 2.5-inch laptop hard drive can be connected to it, allowing you to make any drive external. This eliminates the need for a casing of some kind with screws and other small pieces that can get lost easily. Even if you don't have a 360, this is worth the price just to keep it with your PC hardware in case it's needed in the future.
Honest reviews on Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Cable
Got this to transfer content from my Xbox 360 Elite 20GB to my new Xbox 360 Slim 250GB and it worked great. Took about an hour I believe. Great product, easy to use.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Xbox 360 Hard Drive Transfer Cable
I found it was very easy to use this cable. I transferred about 100 GB from my old 250 GB S Console drive to a new 320 GB S Console drive. I don't remember exactly how long it took but it was probably an hour or longer. The instructions mention that when you plug in the cable and turn your Xbox on you should see a message pop up asking if you want to transfer data using the cable. My Xbox took a really long time to display this message. I actually was able to get to my system settings in my Xbox and start the transfer process before my Xbox ever detected the cable and displayed the message.This cable will not allow you to transfer any games you have installed on your old hard drive to a new one. You'll have to re-install the games onto your new hard drive using your Xbox console.
