If your upgradeing from a stock hdd then you are going to clone the E drive unless for some reson you had a C drive on your stock hdd then you wold clone C.
You want to clone the drive that your soft mod exploit is on and your dash board XBE file.

You can clone both C and E drives, one after the other, its ok. 1 will not overwrite the other.
oh so if i clone the c driive then when its done then rechosse clone again and choose e it will clone that as well? how do i know when its done cloneing each one like what will chimp do? also if i then lock the drive with chimp and its not right can i then unlock it again with chimp with no problems ?

Yes, its fine to do one after the other.
You should get a status bar showing the clone progress, and have to press ok when each is finished.
If you lock the HDD using chimp, you may use it again to unlock it. Make a note of the code chimp gives you when you lock.
ok i have manged to copy the old drive and the new drive is in and seems to be working,looking in file manager it sayss the E drive is 3.3gb and the F drive is 106.8gb so if i wanna put films and stuff on the xbox do i have to put those in F?
