300 Gb Maxtor Hdd
« on: October 10, 2004, 11:27:00 AM »

Maxtor has this 300 GB Hdd that I was thinking about getting.  I've even seen a 400 GB Hdd on the net.  I wanted to know do you think it is possible to add this to your xbox and get it to work?  I already have a 200 GB Hdd with the bios to support it.  Everything is working fine and I was wondering would these work as well?

My friend has a 300 GB Drive and it works fine, but I think you need to have a ****.67 BIOS because the F drive can only have have 256 GB. It will work without that but like 40 GB will be unuseable.

You can use a 300gig drive with just a large F drive - use xbpartitioner to format with 32k clusters.
