just wondering

just wondering if anyone has managed to use more than the maximum 137 GB HDD that the xbox allows. i have read it somewhere but i forgot where that people were talking about using all the partions and such, which will give them alot more than 137 GB. if so, then this is good news and has anyone here tried it yet? it would be nice to take advantage and make use of all the partions .

There is a post about this on www.xbox-scene.com You have to download a bios that will support HDs with 137GB or more. Just look around the forums.

I read some thing awhile ago about having to "patch" your BIOS using a program called XBTool. I didn't really pay that much attention to it at the time b/c I was looking for some thing else, but you may want to do a little research on that.
