Lexieye Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 good afternoon all i upgraded my hard drive and want to use the old one for something totally different. is there a way to reset the HD and totally factory format the drive to FAT32? i unlocked the drive using the XBOX and plugged it into my pc. Using Disks i used the NULL KEY as a password to access it but i still don't have permission to write to or format the 500gig WESTERN-DIGITAL. so am i just stuck with an old backup of the XFAT IDE? please help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_Dave Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 You will need to remove all the partitions form the drive I use a PC program called "EuseUS partition Master" as this will remove all the Xbox partitions then to can use the same program to create a new single partition suitable for you PC to format. 8 hours ago, Lexieye said: Using Disks i used the NULL KEY as a password to access it but i still don't have permission to write to or format the 500gig WESTERN-DIGITAL. If the HDD is unlocked you don't need the key as a unlocked drive has no key and a nulled key is just a lock code off all zeros (32 zeros )or the new rocky5's key is now all one's (32 ones ) sounds like the drive may still be locked.
