since im in the middle of soldering my xecuter, if i fit a switch, ive herd u cant upgrade ur hd since xbox's are made not to work with bigger hd's (if i turned the mod off) but my question is, wat if i locked my upgraded hd? cud i turn off the chip and still use the new hd?

                                    Yes, put the new hdd in, prepare it using the evolutionx hdd prepare 1.2 disk, boot with evolutionx and run the backup option.  Copy the password file from the backup directory and use that password to lock the disk using your pc.  With the xecutor, you wont be able to replace the msdashboard with evolutionx and get it to boot when disabled, even with the hdd locked.
There's plenty of tutorials telling you how to get the password out of the text file and lock/unlock your drive.
