3tb Xbox Possible?, is the 3tb in a xbox possible Options

[masterofpuppets]

you cant use a USB drive over 4gb with xbox1, the USB drivers wont read anything over that
personally i use USB 2.0 external drives connected to my PC, then use samba (windows shared folders) to stream over the network

Agreed instead of trying to add more space to the xbox just stream your media over the network.

Can anyone confirm the 2.2TB max?

Here's the confirmation.

Wow found my old post searching.

Question. Has anyone actually bought a 3 tb and tried to make it work.

If not I will

[reliantkcar]

Ok so the 3tb is in but i'm having problems obviously. First off it is only reading 2.2 tb in xbpartitioner. 2nd wen I make 3partitions of lets say 990 990 and 320 then I go to xboxhdm 1.1 and redo it with 64 bit clusters it works but
If I even toggle a partition bigger the 1tb it freezes then won't load the dash and I have to put mechassault back in and re mod it again.

This is the harddrive i'm using

Is the a patched bios or a new xbpartitioner. I found a old thread but I can't compile code.....

keep on asking.
but all you gonna get as a reply is fatx is limited to 2.2tb.. its what was said before you got the drive and is what will be said now..

The support for that is in the bios though so.. if you can re write it then anything is possible id imagine.

How about some ideas....

[reliantkcar]

Anyone point me in the right direction to make a lba48 bios. I know for my old ata33 mac the is a loader of some type to read larger drives

[reliantkcar]

OK so its been a while. The 4tb harddrives are out and are there any workarounds to make this work. Either a bios upgrade or a patch to xbpartitioner

[Heimdall]

Have you rewritten a BIOS yet so that it can read multiple 1TB partitions on a 4TB disk?

Have you checked that the on-disk partition table can support multiple 1TB partitions?

Have you gone through the kernel and replaced all of the 32bit sector numbers used for low-level access with 48 bit numbers?

Have you rewritten XBPartitioner to support 128kB clusters?

No? Well, there's your answer. It doesn't matter how many times you keep asking the same question, until you actually do some work nothing is going to change.
