2. From your PC format the new hard disk to fill it with all zeroes (THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT), you can do this in a variety of ways I used IBM's Drive Fitness Test version 3.01 (here), you can also use linux's dd cmd or use winhex to write all zeroes to the drive.  All that is important is the drive is completely 0's.  After formatting it look at it with winhex or something to make sure it is all 0's.

ummm, im confused... what does means "fill the HD with all zeroes"?

Yes , you must have either a homebrew Evo-X chip or flashed the Evo-X bios to your xbox in order to change hard drives .

No one has addressed the 'other' partitions (the one's besides C and E, we must need those as well?
