    The 60gb isn't official, it's aftermarket (someone got a laptop HDD and formatted it in their Jtag).

    500gb Xplorer 360

    It's the same problem with the Security Sector with both drives, neither of which have been "signed" to say they are official which is why they'll work only on a JTAG.

    If the 60GB is a Western Digital drive you can use HDDHacker to modify the drive and effectively spoof it to be a legitimate 60GB drive.

    the 60gb is a friend of mine thanks for the 500gb tool

    Yeah but is it a legitimate hard drive? Like from a 360 console? Did it previously work in non-JTAGs? My guess is no, I've not heard of corruption of the SS before, at least not corruption that'd render it fine in a JTAG and not fine elsewhere
