Xbox 360 users can rejoice in the release of Xplorer360 v0.9. Brave users can now hook up a 360 HDD to your PC with a SATA adapter and even more adventurous users can read/write data to the 360's memory cards via your PC's USB port. Here's a list of the features supported with the initial release of this application:

• FULL Read/Write to 360 HDDs.
• FULL Read/Write to 360 Memory Units.
• Physical and Logical drive access.
• Support for opening of dumps of both devices.

With this newfound power, users can now share savegame data with others over the Internet and it opens up a new can of worms when it comes to Xbox 360 hacking. The utility even gives you the ability to transfer old Xbox savegame data over to your Xbox 360.
