    Well, if the 137GB limit is removed, then I don't see why not. But I may be wrong.

    I don't even think dev's have a limit themselves, or atleast a certain version because my friend popped in a 160 when he originally had a 120 without modification.

    The 137GB limit only applies to xbox 1 dev/debug kits.But for 360 debug/dev kits I don't know the hdd limit.I know someone who hooked up a 500gb hdd and it worked just fine and you very well can go over a terabyte if needed.

    So the dev kit I have on the way does not come with the SDK (so tools like recovery arent possible). Is there any other options I have in order to make the hard drive (from newegg) work on the xdk? Do I have to format or partition it with a certain compatible scheme? Are there tools that I can use, such as xplorer360(?), that can format the stock computer (2.5 sata) hard drive to work? Is the 360 sata controller 1.5 or 3?

    You can format a hdd in the retail 360 dashboard as long as your not running a low kernel.So yes you can but you wont be able to add any games to the hdd as you lack the sdk.
