Upgrading the Xbox 360 hard drive CHEAP!

Step 9 If you cannot see partition 2

There are 2 things you can do here:

1. Some people had success by just trying to restore Partition 2 and then restarting Xplorer360.

2. You may have to manually add the partition - This worked for me.

To manually add the partition:

1. Open Hex Workshop. Click Disk --> Open Drive -->and then select your 120GB drive. MAKE SURE YOU CHOOSE THE CORRECT DRIVE!
2. Click Edit --> Goto. Type 400 (hex) in the field and make sure "Beginning of drive" is selected in the "From where" options.
3. You should see 0-F and they should all be 00's. Change it to (see pic also):

58 54 41 46 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 10 00 00 00 01

4. Click File --> Save
5. Leave Hex Workshop open and open WinHex. Go to offset 80000 or do a search for "XTAF". Verify that byte 80000 you see 58 54 41... like above. If not, go back to Hex Workshop, undo your changes and try again.
6. Open Xplorer360 xtreme build 2 and you should have partition 2 listed.

Sorry for the comment clutter, but I feel this should be on this step. I'm pretty sure just writing to the hard drive on your 360 will make these partitions if they're not visible. So just log in, and download a demo, or copy a game to the hard drive.
