Title: 750GB Post by: realg123 on December 28, 2008, 02:48:08 AM Hello its me again with another problem
I recently purchased a 750GB hard drive. Installed it onto the xbox. Enabled G: drive, and tried to partation it with xboxpartioner. I have two main problems I enable G: drive: but on file explorer it does not come up (Instead i have a V drive for some reason) Also all the space goes into the F: drive. For some reason i can not partation G drive. I used xbox partioner before with many 500gb hard drives and it worked fine. But what seems to be the problem with this 750GB. I also enabled G: drive in both dashboards Unleash X, and evox, no luck. any help would be great.

But try that it may or may not work or if you do not want to do that i have nothing i can think of at the moment.
Title: Re: 750GB Post by: realg123 on December 28, 2008, 09:44:22 AM Thanks for the reply ratt. I used that, xboxhdm to build the hard drive. Anything over 320GB needs to be formatted with 32k. I could format the hard drive but only the F: drive, for some reason I it wont pick up G: drive, even though I allow it, using both evox and unleashx. And when i modded it, i used .67 patcher
Title: Re: 750GB Post by: GamezR2EZ on December 28, 2008, 12:45:44 PM well realg, try dumping the drive and doing a from scratch install, NOT using the F or G drives when you make the drive
dump the xbpartitioner.xbe onto the E drive and go from there you can safely have 512gb on your F drive with 32k cluster size the G can be 16k cuase it will be under 32k Title: Re: 750GB Post by: realg123 on December 28, 2008, 06:03:00 PM okay i fixed the problem. I remodded it, and set it to .67 (for some reason why I tried that with extras it didnt work)
I formatted F: and G: with 32K. I tried to split F; and G: to have the same partion size but it didnt work. So now I am left with F: 123GB (Formatted with 32K) G: 584GB (Formatted with 32k) My question is am I going to get any data corruption? Title: Re: 750GB Post by: GamezR2EZ on December 28, 2008, 06:20:04 PM so the drive goes to V: ?
wierd ok well using the xbpartitioner should format the drives for you, you dont NEED to used krayzie at ALL Title: Re: 750GB Post by: realg123 on December 28, 2008, 06:22:59 PM okay i fixed the problem. I remodded it, and set it to .67 (for some reason why I tried that with extras it didnt work)

Title: Re: 750GB Post by: GamezR2EZ on December 28, 2008, 06:33:34 PM data corruption comes from the clusters
16k clusters support partions UP TO but not past 256gb 32k supports 512gb so yes you will get data corruption on your G drive use xbpartioner to format F to 500gb 32k throw the rest onto g with 16k clusters Title: Re: 750GB Post by: realg123 on December 28, 2008, 06:47:30 PM gamerz thanks for the quick replies and help
what i did was formatted them both with 32k and each drive is 353GB is that going to be okay? Title: Re: 750GB Post by: GamezR2EZ on December 28, 2008, 06:50:37 PM thats perfectly fine
as long as its 32k and not over 512 per partion you wont have corruption Title: Re: 750GB Post by: realg123 on December 28, 2008, 06:51:44 PM thank you, thanks a lot :)
