    Yeah I am trying to instal a Maxtor 160GB HDD into my xbox with Unleash X and Evo X. I Tried Useing xboxhdm and when I put the new hd in my xbox and the cd in the drive i get that stupid microsoft error with the matrix and stuff. Idk how to change the hd jumper and im not sure if that is a very important step and also i only put my C drive on the cd because the readme said you dont have to have drive E. anyone know a good tut that can help me succesfully install this Hd into my softmodded xbox??

    is that the only way you can check becuz this pc is my dads not mine
    i was looking on the Xbox harddrive compatibilty chart and the HDD that I have isnt listed their http://xboxdrives.x-pec.com/?p=list its a Maxtor 160GB model 6Y160P0042851 does that mean its not compatible with xbox or no one has tried it?? I am going to buy some Cd-rw's tonight and im going to make an EVO X bootable CD to format the HD and if that doesnt work im stomped man ,, idk any help would be appreciated
