Okay, not sure if this should go here, so feel free to move it, admins.

For reference, when FTPing, I use Windows Explorer and go to the address:

ftp://xbox:[email protected]:21

I can get to all of my folders, games, etc., but do not have any of my cache drives visible... I see C:\, D:\, E:\, and F:\, but none of my cache...

Suggestions?

The cache drives are only accessible on your Xbox.

Wrong. If you use evolution-x and smartftp you can view the cache drives. I have a nice piece of coding that allows you to clear your cache files straight from the evox dash. Just a little easier than using a computer ;)

If you'd like it, let me know and i'll post it.

You're right Kibito, I just noticed I have my XYZ drives, silly me, my mistake. :P

If you'd like G.I.R. I'll still post the coding so it makes it easier for everyone including you XBC?

Nah, I rarely need to clear my cache since I internalize all of the bitmaps I skin. Thanks for the offer though. ;p

EDIT: Plus I think I'm running an old version UnleashX anyway; whatever it is, it came with my Splinter Cell Softmod.

Well, I know that the drives used to be visible. Does it have anything to do with using XBMC? I used to use Avalaunch, so that might make a difference.

Just type "<drive letter>:\" in the adress bar and you'll be able to view them ;)

Yes, XBMC does have something to do with it. XBMC doesn't allow you to access your cache drives. There is a tutorial floating around somewhere on net but I tried it and it doesn't work. So for now, either use:

Avalaunch, Evox, or UnleashX. Avalaunch has the built in file explorer that shows the drives. Evox you can use with ftp and Unleash...i'm not sure but I think it has a file explorer but they'll show in ftp as well.

Okay. Well, for now, I'll just see if I can access it by typing the drive letter in the navigation bar. If all else fails, I can run Avalaunch.xbe to access my cache partitions.

Well, thanks, guys! That's all I need!
