dont worri on the folders that are on the hd.

you need your ar kit ( to transfer files between pc and xbox ) $30 and your exploitable game $5-15 ....

Well acctually an xbox harddrive is a standard 8 to 10 gig, and about 4 gig is free, and gus is right they are there even if it isnt modded, and you will still have room to put your apps on with AID and you will have room to also put emulators on as well

C < your dash E your personal info gamesaves etc etc. D < drive F sometimes on certain hds and x y z are temp folders
F and G happens after you upgrade your hd ....

but to softmod it and have 1 game burn or so its good enough... then you can upgrade hd and fit more space ....

you dont even need a chip . but first you need to softmod it .

ar kit 1 of 3 exploitable games and that it .

the first step, is to softmod your xbox, then you make backups of your c and e and backups folder and put it on your computer and then you follow the tutorial, I imagine the one gus linked you to will be easier for you to follow.
