just hacked my PB and looking to get a new HD. seems like the Samsung 160Gb IDE drives are the most common ones out there. Are they any good? Will they work well with the Phatbox/DMS in this new hacked environment? Any other suggestion for HD brand?

next, i need to know what i need to do to prep the HD. do i just replace the existing HD in the DMS unit and fire up DMS Hack Tools? Will it prepare all the partitions and add all the necessary files to Phtsys/Phtdata partitions? anything else i need to be aware of?

Yup, just use the "create new DMS", pick the head unit you have, and wait for the magic. Grin

cool!

any HD preferences? looks like Samsung 160Gb M5 Spinpoint has pretty good shock protection. might go for that...
