GODspeed FTP Client — compiled release after 9 years
When I first tried transferring files to my "unshackled" Xbox 360 via the usual FTP tools like FileZilla or WinSCP, they topped out around 10 Mbit. I didn't know why — I have a gigabit switch and Cat7 cables, so I was a bit baffled. After some research I found a lot of posts about how slow FTP transfers on the 360 are, with some blaming it on the FTP server in Aurora. That's when I came across GODspeed, an FTP client specifically built for the Xbox 360. So I tried it and it actually hits the 100 Mbit mark. A massive difference when you're pushing large game files.
Unfortunately, the original project by mercenaryntx has been dead for about 9 years. There's a newer fork by Pandoriaantje that brings some improvements, but it was never compiled or released in a usable form — so I did it.
I built it from source, added a Setup installer, a portable zip, cleaned up the repo, and put together a proper release so people can actually use this gem without having to set up a full build environment.

Tested on Windows 10/11 (64-bit). No additional runtime downloads needed.
Enjoy.
