Worked very well and locked in a 1.0 and a 1.6 soft modded xbox using Chimp from Rocky5's mod. Bought an IDE to SATA adapter and a new 80-wire IDE cable. Make sure when you're doing the hot swap the IDE to SATA adapter is set to slave. Then, once finished and the hard drives are swapped, set it back to master.
Also, when you are in chimp, one of the last opitons asks about how you would like to partitions set up (F & G). MAKE SURE YOU SPLIT THE DRIVES EVENLY. Apparently, hard drives have issues with the way the kb clusters are set up. With the way Chimp sets it up, I believe you should be fine with up to 500gb per partition. I'm no expert, so don't take this to heart, but better to be safe. With the hard drive, you'll have 473gb per partition.
