X2 4983 - 320GB - F & G
M8+ - 320GB - F & G
I have not been able to find a bios that lets me split a F & G into equal parts with a 500GB HDD
Post by: nachomans on June 16, 2006, 11:48:00 AM
With M8+ and 250gb+ (32k clusters) I have some bad experiencies....like xbmc hanging, and so many other weird things (no data corruption)
So, I cant reomend M8+ for 250gb+ on F, just use F + G or 5032... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I bet it will be a problem since 256 was the problem with huge drives. Will LBA support going past 512?

How about a bios that will support a 750GB drive?

Sorry gotta use an F+G AKA.67 and edit the partition table with XBPartitioner.

everyone says the same thing. I have tried several bios with F & G support and the ignore HD partition table, but I have not been able to split F & G into equal parts. So if he uses a 750Gb HDD he will only get F:127Gb and G:595Gb so even with 32k clusters he will get corruption on G after 512GB, lossing almost 100GB.
Now if anyone has been able to split F & G into equal part an can shared the process it will be much help.

You mention the bios, but you haven't mentioned using xbp.
Krayzie's seems to work fine with this. just soft mod it and use xbe partitioner

I set XBpartition equal parts for 6 & 7
I Format
Exit back to UnleashX and this is what I get.
Turn off Xbox and then turn back on (reboot) and I get this.
I can't seem to be able to keep f & g at equal parts.
Have you installed a 500gb and made F & G into equal partition?

Some people say when you format with 32k clusters smaller files take more space.
Also if you install a 750GB or when the 1TB HDD come out if you are not able to split F & G into equal parts then after 512GB formatted with 32k cluster then you will get corruption after that point unless you can format with 64k cluster and I don't think some one has released an app that let you do that.

I have a WD 300GB and after doing XBP F drive showed 123GB but it couldn't see G(yes it was enabled).
So after putting about 20GB worth of files in F I didn't want to repartition it(lose data)
So I DEselected all but G and hit Start, Y and it booted to ERROR 21 screen
WTF?

Dashboard is whatever UnleashX build comes with Krayzie's 1.1.1 off XBINS 1 week ago
Also, I have all backups and the ISO from XboxHDM still in my possession

But, if you have a bios that supports F and G, just use a partioner and formatter like an slayers installer disk...you dont need xbpartitioner....
Just from the general talk around XS, I'm a little cautios about using Slayer'sShould I just redo XboxHDM with same drive & ISO then use XBP to make one HUGE F drive..??

No. On a 300GB drive, you will run into corruption if you make one huge F drive.
Something else is wrong here. Re-do XboxHD. Make sure the C files are dash 5960. Allow F drive and format it in XboxHDM. See if that fixes your problem.

Is there some special way that you have to format G drive or something to get it to work,
or should you just be able to "Enable" it in system settings?

Ok, So redo XboxHDM, and do everything all over, but that's exactly what I did last time and G drive wouldn't work..

UnleashX lets you format the HDD from the Dashboard as long as the opion is available. The password is "xbox" without the " ".
