Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

The Startech one in your link says it has been replaced by this one: https://www.startech.com/uk/HDD/Adapters/25in-and-35in-40-Pin-Male-IDE-to-SATA-Adapter-Converter~IDE2SAT2 Would that do also? Or you haven't tested Found this on ebay: http://www.ebay.ie/itm/TR1359-IDE2SAT2-Startech-40-Pin-IDE-PATA...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Hi Rocky,
Got to about 460gb free on F: and now the dash keeps crashing on me when I try to FTP stuff over.
Any idea what's up?
Is there a way to transfer the files directly to the Xbox HDD connected to my PC because FTP takes forever even at 100mbs.

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

The IGR method set in the BIOS as per my previous screen is set to Compatible. https://s18.postimg.org/50rwjes0p/Capture.png Should I try Quick instead? I have used Chimp to format F and G and it seems like the mirroring has gone away. UnleashX is still slow at FTPing but Evox works fine so I'm just...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Is this link ok for XBP 1.3? Because I tried running Chimp and just rebooted the console so I wasn't able to run it. Also, should I try quick IGR method instead for the BIOS? What could be causing F and G to be shown as mirrors though? The dash I'm using? Both partitions look ok spacewise on the AID...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

So I used XBP 1.0 and then 1.1 Then I used the 1kb file test and free space changed accordingly. Odd how that error was not coming up before with the older X2 BIOS and transfer speeds were just fine. If I change the reset method will it help? Is my LBA48 setting wrong? I had left it as it was on the...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Managed to get the chip flashed with M8+ and was able to use XBpartitioner to run like in the tutorial. However I do have a few issues: 1. The in game reset seems to do a full reset and then error 07 instead of returning to the dash. Need to power off and restart each time. Need to fix this. 2. For ...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Issues which corruption or files failing to transfer after a certain amount of GB is a cluster issue, hens why I said to make sure they were formatted correctly. Download Chimp 261812 https://github.com/Rocky5/Chimp261812/archive/master.zip Inside the E partition folder there is a chimp folder stic...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Thanks Rocky. Any idea where I can find this? Most links are dead due to age. Currently UnleashX detects the F partition with the remainder of the space up to 2TB. What happens if I leave it like that, without splitting to F and G? Data corruption? Also I do not remember if the X2 is 256 or 512kb, h...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Apparently I need bios at least X2 5035 for the LBA48 support but cannot find any links which are still up for it.
Anyone have the files somewhere on their computers?

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

I think I need a BIOS update too because Xbpartitioner was saying LBA48 info not found, custom partitions will not work with this BIOS etc. 20161204_112750.jpg 20161204_113023.jpg The bios checker on the Evox disc was unable to detect the version. 20161204_115136.jpg The formatting did not work 2016...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Thanks for the suggestion Rocky, I think I should have some old 80 wire IDE cables from an old EVGA motherboard somewhere in the house. Will give that a try and report back :) Edit: Seems like I can see the partitions now with the 80 pin cable so I will proceed with the guide. Thanks Rocky. The cabl...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Burnt the 2.6 version of the disk and got it to load and format with the Large HDD option. All looks like it works fine but when I reboot I get missing dashboard error and when I FTP all partitions are blank. Cannot seem to transfer to the drive either. Am I doing something wrong or the HDD doesn't ...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

So EvoX or Unleash X will not see it at all? It has to be XBMC?

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

Hi guys.
Will a 3TB HDD SATA drive work via the same method?
Could I create a 3rd partition for the 3rd TB or is the xbox limited to 2tb max?
I'd like to get a 3TB drive and store everything on it but I haven't seen anyone mention anything over 2TB in the whole thread.
