I take it by using the Xecuter Blaster360 you could save yourself the expense of ruining your case and being able to remove the device if you ever wanted to sell it.

Anyone have one?

Your thoughts?


Exactly, it makes life easier instead of cutting open the case. I've only used it for my Hitachi though, not sure how it works (if at all) with the other drives. Never had to look into it.

no point really though.  this was made back when people had to reflash a new version of firmware all the time and now we have a really stable version.  It was also big for Samsung drives back in the day because you used them to backup games but now a Kreon Flashed Drive is mostly used.

Isnt it better to remove the drive to connect it to an external power source? It has been awhile since I have flashed a drive. The last time was when the first ban wave came in.. and people were saying to use a external power for the drive so that the xbox360 was never powered on without a optical drive, thus throwing a flag.

Not sure but just asking.

I also plan to mod and was just wondering if this product has any advantages.


i was just reading all these posts ( fromyears ago now), and i was thinking it would be cool if i could ...

put a splitter(2into1) the sata at the drive,
have a simple on off switch to the motherboard side,
 
then if ur feeling adventurous convert into usb with suddz idea (anyone tried that?) then then disconnect the rear usb from the board and send it out there, allmost perfect solution except for the switch, micro switch in the usb port would be sweet...

...but yer, as if i could be fucked doin any of that,
i think tomorow im just going to molest those plastic case clips one more time...
