Technically you cannot delete your E partition. You can clear it, but you cannot delete it.
And don't take this the wrong way or anything, but is this question H2 xbl modding oriented?

if you have xbox live then upgrade the e drive, and then try playing again im pretty sure you get banned. i think that your hdd # is copied to your gamertag or your eprrom

When you make a GT, xbl 'marries' your eeprom and hdd serial number to each other. And if either of them change, bam. Insta ban.
But say you get a new hdd, and lock it, and then register for xbl. Then you will not be banned. Because xbl will think that this eeprom and hdd serial are original, for it has no reason to suspect it.

The best way to 'delete my 3 driev' is to reformatt. That way you can make all the space on E come to the other drives, divided, or just to another drive, depends on how many drives you are willing to have.

I'd say 1 is the most reasonable, because like 5 just split your space and make it impossible to have a big ass file on one, so that makes sense.

In other words, reformatt windows. In even simpler words, delete windows, put the windows CD in, install. :)
