With the NME chip I will still have to open up my 360 every time I want to backup one of my games, I think the blaster 360 with a custom DVD firmware would probably be more practical.

Why would you have to do that? I do my backups using my PC. Making the backup has nothing to do with the Xbox. You just need the chip installed to play the backup.

Don't you need to use the 360 DVD Dvice to backup the drives? I thought that was the idea of the Blaster 360, you don't have to keep opening up your 360 to connect the DVD drive to your PC.

no dude, you dont use the 360 drive to backup a game......I think your confusion is prob with the fact that you MAY have a samsung drive in your xbox....and you also need a samsung drive flashed with the kreon software to rip them.........these are 2 totally different drives......With the NME your xbox just needs to be opened once to do the install....after that you rip your games with a samsung drive you buy to put in you PC..........

Both are a waste of money

personally the chip in the sammy box is easy and reliable mine has been for 3-4 weeks no problems


blaster looks good but flashing can be problematic whatever you comfy with
