Max Hd Size
« on: December 21, 2004, 01:33:00 PM »
What is the largest hard drive that I can put in a 1.0 xbox with a new x-chip in it?  I read 135gb was the max for one of the chips, but would I be able to put a 160gb in this setup?

Thanks,
John

Any size, I think the latest X-Chip bios is LBA48 compatible if you go into its settings or somthing.

If you are using a hard disk that is bigger than 137 gigs you should change the LBA mode setting to F: and G: so the G partition will hold all data beyone the 137 gig mark. You also must also enable the G: partition in the dashboard as well.
