No not for 360s

As for unlocking the hard drive some methods work for some, others don't here are the most popular methods
1. Let the Xbox sit at the dash for a little while and then hotswap
2. Play a music track off of a soundtrack, pause it, then hotswap
3. Boot a game and start playing it, then hotswap
4. Unplug the DVD drive’s power cable so you get an error 12 and hotswap
5. Hotswap right after you see the MS splash logo
6. If not connected to a TV, unhook the DVD drive’s power cable and hotswap right when you get the red light.

Sometimes it is the pc at fault, Custom built AMDs normally present no problems
There can be bios issues also, here are some work arounds since you're PC literate here goes
-Disable Auto Detection for the Primary Master HD (also explained as setting IDE0/HDA to “NONE”)
-Disable S.M.A.R.T. monitoring
-Unplug all USB devices (use a PS/2 connector for your keyboard)
-Make sure all networking cards have a connection (xboxhdm hangs on unplugged network cables)
