i have a 2tb sata drive successfully installed on another xbox for media center, so i know the sata adapters and the hard drive work just fine.
I have successfully prepped each drive individually, and am currently loading media to them... this will take a week at best, as filling 6tb via lan is a long time.
and lastly, i've successfully installed an xtender before, but noticed that 300gb ide WD drives did not work with the xtender... had to switch to 300gb maxtor drives (that xbox is still running fine to this day, and its beel 5 years now).
My question is... do you guys think this will work with 3x 2tb drives? i'm wondering if the reliability will tank like the old 300gb ide drives i had long ago...
has anyone tried this?
a 6tb xbox would be quite the media center... think of the media i can hold in one portable box! Hoping to have this ready by my vacation in 2 weeks... however i'm wondering if my work will be for nothing once i finally get all the drives loaded, as i cannot really test the xtender idea until i get all 3 drives loaded.
Thoughts? comments? suggestions?
I thought i would ask here, as there is surprisingly little discussion about the old xtender in combination to the 2tb drive installations of late... and am surprised as the xtender + 64 cluster partitioning seems to be a match made in heaven for XBMC!
