ironsniper1 Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 hey everyone, i am just wondering which is better tsop or modchip? pros and cons to both or is it up to personal preference? i like modchips as it gives me a chance to use my soldering iron which i dont get to do much, but am just wondering what others think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XC-3730C Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 For v1.0 - 1.5, it is all personal preference, but for v1.6, your only option is softmod or chip. What kind of chip would you want, and what features from a chip would you want that a TSOP mod wouldn't provide you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironsniper1 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) the only chip i know of that is still being made and that i have used a couple of times is the Aladdin XT + 4032 as for features as long as i can upgrade the hard drive i dont really need anything else Edited December 10, 2018 by ironsniper1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XC-3730C Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 If all you want to do is upgrade the hard drive, TSOP mod it, and you are done, assuming it isn't a v1.6. You can softmod as well, and be able to upgrade the drive, but that process is more involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDShadow Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Softmodding is just as good if all you want to do is put in a bigger HDD. Only real practical difference for most users is that with a softmod the HDD still has to be locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 3tb drive can be used BUT the Xbox has a maximum limit of 2.2 tb so you waste 800gb Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It get's the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.
