as explained a hundred times before, .06 gives you one large F: drive on HDs with more than 137 gig, .67 gives you F: up to 137 gig and G: for the rest of the drive.
use .06 if your HD is smaller than 137 gig.

Thanks you for your kind heart.

Actually, I believe you can use .06 with drives up to ~275GB.  You only have to use .67 (and get an ugly G partition) if your harddrive is greater than 275GB.

Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong; I've never actually tested this.

who said otherwise?

who actually has more than 275?!! honestly,, thats rediculous

.06 is up to 137 and the .67 gives you lba support and is in theory up to 1TB
(I think? 90% sure)

 Kinda like not having all your eggs in one basket.

I understand the Xbox FATX doesn't like single partitions over a certain size, I'm not sure what this is, 200, 250 maybe. It can cause corruptions if its too big.

LBA48 gives you a theoretical maximum of 2.2Tb, but for one, there's no drive in existence that big and two, the filesystem is the limiting factor, unless you have shitloads of 200Gb partitions   which I don't think is possible.
