I have a modded xbox with a Xecuter 2.3 modchip and 120gb hdd. I am going to mod a new XBOX. I am going to put a Xecuter 2.3 Lite modchip with a 160gb hdd. I need to know if the 160gb hdd is to big to be on one drive on the xbox? I have heard that half the memory on a hard drive over 137gb goes on F: and the other on G:, is this true or can I get all the memory on the F: Drive? I appriciate any help!

I assumed that because I am not using an xecuter2 (or the same bios) that it would be different. Thanks though.

well, to be honest, I'm pretty new to all of this stuff and I'm just trying to learn as much as possible while I'm waiting on my chip and hdd. So I really don't know which bios I'm going to use (or NEED to use). I bought a chameleon and I'm putting it in a v1.0 box. And don't take this as a "help the newb" plea either. Unless you really want to, I'm content with researching :P

well depends on the size of the hdd really.

There is no limit on M7. Im using a 160 gig on m7. it doesnt support the big f drive if thats what your looking for. It goes to g drive after 137.

The latest Xecuter BIOS has 2 versions. a .06 and a .67. The .06 puts all the free space on the F drive... even if it is past the 137GB barrier. The other one splits it after that barrier.
