    Hey guys,

    So, I have a WD EasyStore USB 3.0 4TB drive that I was originally using on my Xbox One as a storage drive for games I installed. However, that had to take a backseat to a much more important use. I need the space on it to store 4K footage, as I'm now filming things in 4K as part of my day job. I spent a lot of time painstakingly deleting stuff from it. When I put in in my Win10 computer, it didn't recognize it at first. After a quick tutorial, I was able to find it in Disk Management. Now, I can format the Volume as a new volume but for some reason the drive is partitioned and will not let me un-partition it. Help on the net says there's an "unpartition" setting in the disk manager but I ain't seeing it. I'd really like to use all 4TB of this bad boy and I'm kinda mad it's giving me trouble. Screenshot in here. What am I doing wrong? I know I'm using exFAT for the partition, I need to make it work for Win10 and Mac.

    right clicking won't let me do anything

    Question about Win10 and partitions.

    Cannot un-partition an Xbox One external for Win10? [​IMG]

    So I have a partition ready for Win10 but my question is will I still be able to access my other partitions once Win10 is installed? I keep hearing about the "recovery partition won't be able to be used" and I'm wondering if Win10 just doesn't play nice or if I'm good to go.

    W7 Hard drive partition issue

    to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

    - press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
    - diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
    - list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
    - select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
    - clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
    - create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
    - exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
    - click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that

    Xbox 360 cracked

    Even though the hack is very complex, and should not be done by you and me, but the crack will let you play back-ups of your Xbox 1 and Xbox 360 games, and will boot all normal xbox games, yes all, not just the onces on the compatibilty list. So we are one step closer.
