Without a locked hard drive you will not be able to get to the Original MS Dash to say save audio cd's on the system or manage your saved games. If you really could care a less about these features then locking the drive is not 100% necessary.
you have to lock your drive if youre softmodding. only way you can use an unlocked drive is by having a modchip.
