I currently have a softmodded xbox, xbmc t3ch, and a 320GB seagate hard disk. How can I get access to the rest of the 320GB? I cannot seem to find a forum describing this...

Do you have the Aid disk if so use that to Format a G drive then it should show up ....
BUT make shure you only format G DRIVE........

no, I don't have that. However, I assume I can get this from 'the usual places'. Is this right? An ISO file of some sort? Hey, thanks for the pointers.

so, all I see is a torrent... a 735 meg torrent file. Is this what I need? That's a huge file!

Make sure you don't have more than 256gb in one partition or it will corrupt. I had this issue with a 500gb. If you want more in one partition you must format the partition using xbpartitioner with 32kb clusters.
Good luck

so since I have 130ish in F, and 175ish in G, then those are 'separate partitions' just like a pc, right? so, in this case, I won't need to format using 32k clusters...
That is how mine looked till i filled it up with games and stuff.

I did that, and now when I boot my xbox it says "service required...call customer support" I can't get past that screen. Nothing on there is critical, so if I need to wipe my drive clean somehow that is ok. Also, I have my eeprom stored on my computer somewhere.
Any ideas? I sure hope this xbox/hard disk isn't bricked
error #21, that is

ok, download MS Dash from my signature(you can even add the game saves to the disc), make a disc with it on it with XBHDM 1.9, then unlock the hdd and rebuild it. Then you need to reinstall the softmod, this is in my opinion the BEST way to go about upgrading an hdd with a softmod.
Don't forget to re-lock the drive once XBHDM has rebuilt it.

Cool thanks.
I took my HD out of the xbox, and hooked it up to my computer, using the XBOXHDM DVD I made when upgrading my HD. I used the "repair C partition and restore to its virgin state" or whatnot and it worked. (first i unlocked it, and afterwords i locked it)
Thanks a bunch guys for all the tips. My xbox is working EXCELLENT and I'm pumped to have a SOFTMODDED XBOX with a 320 GIG Drive! WOWWW!
