    DO NOT delete ANYTHING from the C directory XD I highly advise against it =P You never know what could happen. If you need space, it depends on what portion of the HDD you need space. Can you use the F or G drive? If not, you need to use your UnleashX dashboard, go to settings, and format, then format F or G. Hit yes when it asks if you're sure you want to format drive whatever. It gives you an extra 2 gigs =P If you need space on your E drive, delete things you don't need, for example if you have emulators, delete any roms you don't use. Delete anything you don't use. If you don't know what it is, it's best not to bother with it.

    That's... exactly what I do, wam. lol That's actually the best way to do it. Hey Logan, go into the UnleashX settings, and find the settings to enable or disable the F and G drive. Make sure the F or G drive is enabled (just one, since you can only use one of them). Then, go to the file explorer, and if it doesn't say any numbers next to whichever drive you enabled, then it needs to be formated. Numbers, like what you see next to the E and C drives, the ones that tell you how much space is left on the drive. If there's not any next to F or G, format that drive. JUST THE F/G DRIVE lol. Be careful.

    No, when you go to the format option under the settings on UnleashX, it will have a list of all the drives to format. The Xbox HDD is set up in partitions, each partition being a different drive letter: E, F, and G are the ones you use for things like emulators, games, etc. Just go into the settings of UnleashX and scroll down until you see "Format" or "Format Menu," depends on your UnleashX version. Select the F drive or G drive, hit YES, and it will now be available to use. But just make sure you don't accidentally hit C or E =P Oh, and a couple earlier versions ask for a username and password when you click Format Menu, if yours does that, just hit xbox for both, I believe that's it.

    Calm down, dude lol be patient. I don't use UnleashX as my dash anymore, so don't get frustrated, as I don't remember where everything is. From the main menu (where you have shut down, reboot, file explorer, etc.) go to the one where you can change the settings and skin and stuff, it's in there. lol

    Could I just format just by going to file explorer and opening that up and go down to F drive push start and then go down to format drive? Will that work or is that not what I do. I see the F drive in my file explorer it has a 0 next to it, its that one right?

    I don't know, I don't use UX anymore. If you it says format in the menu when you hilight the F drive and hit the white button, then do it.

    The format option is not on the my main menu its on file explorer on my main menu. I go into that go down to the F drive push start and then go down a ways and it will give me a format drive... option. If anybody knows if this is the right way to do it please confirm this. And what about me pushing the white button before I format it? I dont get what that does?
