Josh999 Posted July 18, 2020 Report Share Posted July 18, 2020 Hello everybody. I'm currently getting back into the Xbox OG modding scene after a long break. . . I currently have two modded Xbox's with different chips fitted, currently trying to ID what chips are currently fitted?? One of the Xbox's has a large hard drive fitted, and the other is standard, any recommendations on what hard-drive to go for.? Best regards Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best regards Josh Hello Josh And welcome to ogxbox.com Hard drive wise I like the WD Black 2tb drive followed by Seagate Barracuda 2tb . You will also need a Sata to IDE adaptor and a lot of modders swear by the Startech brand and I have a couple but have also used the ones from china with only 1 faulty in the last 2 years. It's recommended to replace the 2 caps with better quality ones . You will also need a good quality 80 way IDE cable and wary of the cheap chinese ones as some are poorly crimped at the plugs. Lastly depending of the age of the modchip you may need to update the BIOS as the older BIOS did not support a hard drive above 137 gig Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

If you want a chip that can have multiple or larger bios and can be used with a lcd screen go for a openxenium. 2nd hand modchips are available cost and quality varies.

Josh999 Posted July 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 I'm going to be playing original disks and backups as i have a mix of both. . . i also like to run emulators and home brew software. is the Hexen disk the easiest way to upgrade my older bios's and dashboards?? ( not clued up on the latest versions ) cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh999 Posted July 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 I think i have a 1.0 & 1.2 both chipped with leaking clock caps ( now removed ) and now a 1.6 standard with no chip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_Dave Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 The 1.0 - 1.4 Xbox I would reflash the TSOP and the 1.6 Fit a modchip Do you know what chips are fitted ?? You could Flash the TSOP on one or both of the chipped Xbox's and use the chip in the 1.6 Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.
