Hello All,

My softmodded box (krayzie) with XBMC has served me well over the few years. The drive is starting to flake, I have Backed up everything from it. Interesting, the new drive is a WD320G JB, it is lockable and according to the drive compatibility chart its valid. I though this would be the easy way, unlock original well in this case 40G seagate, using XBOXHD, cloned drive. Verified you XBROWSER, locked new drive. Put it in XBOX and I get real pretty blinking lights immediately upon boot(similar to putting in an unlocked drive). So I lock the original back up plug in and it works ? After doing some research the road seems to split many ways, My XBOX version is 1.0, well according to 1 site I came across, say the XBOX unlocks all hardware on the fly during post, they passkey is derived from serial number of xbox,eprom.bin and hard drive. Well if this is true, then the drive lock would change anytime you swap a drive right ? Road 2, My bios doesn't recognize the large drive and I need to flash it or get mod chip ? Road 3, use AID 4.x, setup old drive as new one with evoX with 137+ drive support and install phoenix bios loader on drive and new bios, then clone to new drive and hope that works ?

Any ideas or help would be appreciated

THanks

Jim

Hello,
Install CHIMP on your small HDD, run Chimp, swap the DVD drive for your new HDD and proceed to clone the small hdd to the new bigger one.

CHIMP TUT

Or, Get the soldering iron out and flash the TSOP giving you the same benefits of a modchip but without the cost.

Hello User 1,

I was looking over the chimp tutorial before I posted, my question to you is wouldn't it be almost the same or not if (cloning using DD) ?

As for flashing the tsop, what bios would you recommend, I do not care about live.

Yeah, its pretty much the same as XBOXHDM, just console based rather than PC.
If you decide on the TSOP flash, you cant go wrong with the X2 5035 bios, its stable and has some good configuration options.

I dont mean to insult your intelligence but make sure you use the 1024kb one, to fit the TSOP on your v1.0 console.

I think it does, Cant remember what the default is, probably evox.xbe - You can change it with the X2 Config maker to whatever you like tho.
