I have a Maxtor 40 gig, a 6E040L0711014 to be exact. I had it in an XBOX and had to lock it. I have removed it and unlocked it with the correct key. It will now only show as a 10mb drive, LBA 19999. I have search everything and have come up with not solution, other then flashing the firmware with the hopes it would reset the LBA and recognize it as a 40 gig drive.
Anyone have any idea?
Thanks

Check the HPA function first, before do anything to drive firmware.
You can use MHDD for that.

I tried that...no luck. It only shows LBA 20000 total.
Thanks for the suggestion

Hi also check xboxscene, they had a flasher for a 20gig seagate that was standalone software, also check the forums there was another post a couple of weeks ago about a locked maxtor xbox drive.
