Locking does not effect the access to your storage. I can tell you how to lock/unlock the HD, but that wont help.

The problem is, you need a LBA48 patched bios to handle that task. Find out what bios he is using and get back to us. We can tell you what to do from there. We also need to know what version his xbox is

he'll need to backup F and re format once the reconfigured bios is applied
to gain the extra space

I haven't had to reformat, all it took for me was to enable G: in unleash and then format the drive from the file explorer.

Thats assuming your using unleashx. If not, you could use AID3 to do the same thing

I guess it should be asked: Is your friend hard or softmodded?

If he is softmodded he won't need it, he can just change the options in dash settings.

If its hardmodded, we need to know what type of chip.

assuming he wants a G drive yes, but if not then he'll have to re format the F drive afterwards
