xboxhdm can lock and unlock the HDD remember
I would try without unlocking it first and trying it as is, that is if you have not totally messed the drive up, a locked drive should still be able to read, you will not be able to write to it though in that state
I don't actually care anymore if you just ignore my advise now, I give up, you won't know unless you try.
You are the only member ever to make me want to give up and I have seen plenty of members take a lot to help.
