Western Digital WD2000 (200GB)
7200 RPM w/8MB cache
Model WD2000JB-75DUA0.....does not support locking.

Used Configmagic,HDLock,and UnlockX,all report the same thing....Drive does not support locking.
This appears to be related to Special Edition drives with 8MB cache since I have not yet run across a WD drive with 2MB cache that wouldn't lock.The SE's seem to be hit or miss as to whether they will lock.So stay away from the WD's with "JB" in the model number.

I just blew $80 (after rebates) on it because you damn chart says its lockable w/o a question mark.  I want to know how to flash the firmware (if possible) so the damned thing will lock.

Tried 3 different Config Magics- nope

SOMEONE HELP! sad.gif  sad.gif  uhh.gif  uhh.gif  grr.gif  grr.gif

Can anyone tell me if  4R060J0 Maxtor 60GB 5400 RPM drive is lockable ?

I've searched but nothing came up so maybe someone has gotten this one to lock but hasn't posted yet.

Thanks.

To LegolasArcher:

I sent a very similiar email to WD and they told me that their drives are all lockable, but they will not support us actually doing so because we may forget the password.

They said if we are having trouble getting one to lock, we should contact our software support.

I really doubt that WD is going to be any help to us.

To SNAAAKE:

You need either a modchip or exploit to use any programs or dashboards not made by MS.  When you say "online", I assume you mean "XBOX LIVE".  

You CANNOT use XBOX-LIVE with a modchip or exploit or a different dashboard.  Try it and they ban your XBOX.  (If you have these, disable them before connecting to LIVE)

If you mean XBConnect instead of LIVE, then YES, you can use whatever dashboard you want to (if you have the chip/bios or exploit)

Just install a new 250 gig hard drive and lock it with configmagic.

Make: Western Digital
Model: WD2500JB 8 meg cache

Fitted it in a v1 xbox

also just to add i have locked about 10 Western Digital 120 gig JB series hard drives with 8 meg cache with configmagic.

Kingken:

Could you post the firmware version on those WD 120GB 8MB Cache Hard Drives?
