dtomcat Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 1. Any solid state device has a limited number of writes. So yes it reduces the life. But I HIGHLY doubt you’re anywhere near that limit unless you’ve been flashing multiple times a day since the console was made. 2. No. Nope. No way 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dtomcat Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 You should be fine. As a disclaimer… some parts fail prematurely. So that why I say “should” be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and No you will need to re-flash the bios around 10 times a day for the next 20 odd years 2 hours ago, Naif said: 2.also someone said: the bioses that load from hdd (like ind-bios Cerbios etc.) They reduce the life of the TSOP is it true? No BIOS (basic input/output system) is the program a computer's microprocessor uses to start the computer system after it is powered on and on a unmodified OG Xbox the bios chip is set to read only until you add the 2 links on the MB Cerbios and other bios files all boot from the bios chip they only look at the HDD for a configuration settings and they can all load from a built in configuration settings if there is no config file like cerbios.ini Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.
