Watch this video tutorial... I followed the exact steps and it worked for me

 

 

Ok ive just tried with a 2.5inch 1 TB drive. Tried splitting in 500gb portions so drive F is 498 gb and drive G is 498 GB. Itsbok when i restart the console the partitions show. But as soon a switch it off and on from the console the partion resets and shows up as F 947gb. Ive got a strange feeling that 2.5inch sata drives wont work

That's odd as SATA is just an interface, and the 2.5" or 3.5" form factor shouldn't matter.
However, I cannot say for sure as I have only used 3.5" drives for my two Xboxes. After all they are more reliable and cheaper.

Ive just tried partioning a ide 320gb drive and the same probs arise. Split and when i restart the partion deletes and becomes 1 drive.

I domt have a bios installed. Could that be the problem

Check your modchip to confirm what BIOS it can support.

There's no way you don't have a BIOS, otherwise the Xbox can't bootup 😊

In the X3 config make sure that in the new hard drive setup menu you have the use saved partition set to enabled

I also found on some Xbox's it better to reduce the partition size of F and G (6 and 7) by 1gb in XB partioner .

Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Make sure the drive partitions are set correctly then use your install disk to setup the hard drive with a dash board.

Have a look at the OG Xbox installer disk 

This is a ship load better than Hexen.

I use the DCHP version as it gets a IP address from your home network system

Finally working bro. Used hexan. Split partitions and then went back 1 like the guide above on youtube. Then went back in and pushed it up 1 and wrote partitions. All working. Thanks so much
