Most find one post sufficient.
I've removed the duplicate post.

keep in mind that a xboxhdm formats the hdd using fatx. If you are trying to allocate space through fdisk or some other dos shell, it will not recognize the allocation table. It will just want to format it.

Complete the hotswap and use AID 2.11 to format any extra partitions.
