I was curious I have a softmodded xbox with Evox installed and was wondering if I can put in a bigger HDD? I can FTP to it and have installed lots of emulators and stuff but need bigger. Will 80 gigs work? or 40 gigs?

You need to lock the new hdd otherwise your xbox will not boot with it. It is not easy to lock a hdd without mod chip installed, or TSOP flashed.
Crystal Limited Edition (v1.6)
Maxtor 250G HD
EvoX m8_16 Xecuter 3
EvoX 3935
XBMC 1.1.0

you first need to put this in the menu of the evox.ini
[Menu]
Section "Install Menu"
{
Item "Install New Drive",@210
Item "Settings",@9
Item "Reboot",@5
}
[Action_10]
Info "Install HDD"
Warning "This will format all drives"
Warning "Make sure you have a backup of C & E"
Progress "Formatting Drives"
ConfigSector "backupdisk.bin"
Format c:
Format e:
Format f:
Format g:
Format x:
format y:
format z:
[Action_11]
[Action_12]
and undash lockhd. now burn the cd with evox.xbe and your new evox.ini. put in it xbox and boot to it with original hd in. after booted hotswap the new hd into the xbox. click install new drive. when that finishes lock hd. reboot take the cd out. it should work. this is something i thought of it is untested please tell me how it goes. im trying it next week if you want any info then.

If you use evox with a larger hard drive, but dont have a mod chip, can you still copy retail games to the hard drive and play them without the disc? Like, if you rent a game and copy it to the hard drive, will you still be able to play it.
