yeah i guess if you do decide to go slayers way then you could hotswap and put the exploits on.

but when your hotswapping, your gonna be connecting your xbox hd to your pc anyway, so why not just clone it?

and i'm sure you can use a plug that fits the xbox. don't see why that wouldn't work.

alright so i was able to do the format options thing and format my large hardrive... but whenever i try to access a different option to install evox and stuff it just crashes it. i have decided to give up and go by the tutorial.

yeah i feel you man. that slayers hd install looks so easy. i thought i'd have a new hd in 10 mins. but unfortuantely, it was really too easy to be true.

good luck w/ the other tutorial. didn't have any problems with it when i did it. except unlocking/locking the hd. like a dumbass i didn't remove all hd's while trying to unlock my xbox one.

hey, im really screwed up right now. i gave up with the boot discs for xbox cause none of them worked. (i have no i dea why either) so anyway im trying to do this thing and im lost at the hookup here. because from what i understand you need the computer one on primary master, new xbox HD on primary slave, and the orig. xbox HD on secondary slave. so wouldnt you need an IDE cable with 3 connectors? i only ever heard of 2 connectors on an IDE cable
im so confused lol, please help me
thanx

to originally unlock/lock the xbox hd, it must be on the primary IDE channel and set to master. when you are cloning the hd, connect your PC hd on the primary IDE channel as master and the xbox hd on the secondary channel as slave. for the xbox hd, disconnect one of your cd-rom drives (disconnect the master if you can) and set the xbox hd jumper as master. with that you can have 3 hd's connected to your pc at the same time, and then go about cloning from there.

Wow i don't know why isn't this pinned, is by far the easiest way to do the disc change, also you can hot swap instead of inlock the xbox hard drive, thansks for the tut.

>>> 9. Configure evox to format your e,f,x,y,Z drives

I'm using the st.db exploit and have a factory C: partition with the only modifications being on my E: partition. Can I do the method you mention here with the exception of formatting the E: partition (for obvious reasons)? Or would I not get the extra space until E: was formatted? Which brings me to my other questions (sorry, I am also fairly new to this), which partitions benefit from a larger drive? I would assume E: or F: or both? And do you get any benefit out of a larger drive if you don't have a mod chip? I only ask because I saw another thread where that was asked, and the answer given was "no".

Thanks for the help and for the plain English tut.

I have recently found ut you don't really have to format any drive but F:. It is reccomended that you format all drives for integrity purposes but it isn't required. F: is the only partition that will benefit from a larger drive. All space above 8GB is stored in F:. And no you do not need a modchip.
