Identifying DLC and title updates on your Xbox
DLC files will appear as Content Items in the memory menu of the Microsoft Dashboard with either a small green curved arrow on the top right to denote improperly installed content or a small green checkmark to denote properly installed content. The number of content items installed for each game will display on the left side of the screen underneath the icon for the game.
An incorrectly installed piece of content is still worth recovering from your console. If you identify any piece of content please back it up to a computer and contact one of the people listed at the top of this page.
Title Updates are much more difficult to identify. They do not directly appear in the Dashboard but do leave a telltale sign. If the number of blocks used up by storage for a game is significantly higher than the sum of blocks used by the Content Items and saved games, and the game is Xbox Live enabled, it likely has a title update installed.
Using Pinecone tool to identify DLC and title updates in a file dump from your Xbox
Pinecone is a tool used to identify content on the Original Xbox by scanning TDATA folder dumps on your computer. This folder can be found on the E drive of your original Xbox hard drive.
See the Xbox:Pinecone page or Pinecone's GitHub for details.
Recovering DLC and title update files from your Xbox
Most DLC and all title update files on an original Xbox are stored in E:\TDATA\. The only exceptions were some sports titles with roster updates distributed as saved games. Those rosters can be found in E:\UDATA\ in the same way DLC and updates can be found in the TDATA game folder shown below. If you have FTP access to your Xbox you can simply connect to your Xbox via FTP and copy the entire TDATA and UDATA folders to your computer. Once those folders are backed up on your computer you can search for "contentmeta.xbx" files. Every piece of DLC and Title Update excluding the above mentioned sports roster saved games will have a file with this name in it's folder.
Each Xbox game and piece of software for Xbox has an 8 digit TitleID that corresponds with the location the files for each game are stored in the E:\TDATA\ folder. This is a non-exhaustive list of Xbox TitleIDs. To find a specific TitleID for a game, find the name of the game on the list provided, then use the last 8 digits of the TitleID (ignore the 0x) to find the folder name for a specific game, or use the TitleID listed in the tables above.
Using Halo 2, Xbox Live Arcade and Forza Motorsport and their corresponding TitleIDs; here is an example Xbox E drive folder structure with a game with DLC and a Title Update, a game with only DLC and a game with only a title update.
E:
└─ TDATA
├─ 4d530064
│ ├─ $c

Contributing content with Xbox Content Archive Tool
Xbox:XCAT is a utility that runs directly on an Xbox console to find unarchived DLC and other lost content. The application will scan the Xbox hard drive for any lost content and upload it directly to the servers of the XCAT Team for later analysis, sorting, and archival. XCAT is by far the easiest method to help the Original Xbox preservation effort. It can be combined with an Xbox:ENDGAME exploit to be run an an unmodified console. You can download XCAT pre-packaged with ENDGAME here.
Orphaned Stock Xbox Hard Drives
If you believe you posess a stock original Xbox hard drive that was in a console that was previously connected to Xbox Live, it may still have valuable content.
If you cannot access the contents of the hard drive please contact User:Harcroft for a place to send that hard drive to, or to receive help removing the password lock and backing up the data on that hard drive. More information about Xbox Hard drive locking and unlocking can be found here: Xbox:Drive Locking.
