C4EVA iXtreme Benq V1.1 rev2 and xtreme version
Posted by Iriez | November 6 01:20 EST | News Category: Xbox360
 
Here are the latest installments for your VAD6038 benq drive!
Whats new/fixed (ixtreme 1.1 rev2):
(v1.1 rev2) Fixed 'quiet' version.

VAD6038 'xtreme' version:
Boots Stealth and Non-Stealh Xtreme backups - will be detectable and banned on Live if using non-stealth backups!
Thanks to all the beta testers,everyone involved for without their effort this would not have been possible. Schrtom for Dosflash. Caster420 for firmtool. Keep up the good work everyone.

Note: The 'quiet' version is fine within the original 1.1 release, it just didnt function at 4x (quiet), and instead ran the same speed as fast (12x)

Great job, got a question though...
Does BenQ iXtreme handle video sectors of backups the old Xtreme way (requires extra video layer) or the new iXtreme way (auto "SplitVid")?

Great news. Thanks alot.

One question though... If I choose to flash the "quiet" version, will the loadtime increase or still be the same?

I mean does the Benq read at 12X speed or is it just spinning at 12X while reading the data at 4X or what?

Maybe a stupid question, but if I don't ask I will never know, right?

I don't think there's a high need for an extreme version as they both have the same options and also it will send people of track making multiple variations of backups.

Updated batch files are in the usual places or the link below.  BENREADX and BENREMOX added for non-stealth firmware.

Only difference the quiet stuff and the ability to run unstealthed?  If so (as i just run loud and stealthed) should i just stick with the last firmware?

Hi can someone explain simply unstealthed and stealthed,does it link with xbox live in other words not on xbox live or on xbox live.
So if i had an unstealthed backup i could not load this backup and use it on xbox live?
I am new to the forums but have read on here for a long time,just havent been folowing xbox360 in general because i have only just got one!
Many thanks

As far as firmwares go ,i think benq wise it would be better using the fast firmware as i find the benq is already slow at loading in standard form has anone else found this?

If the sound of the drive doesn't bother you, i'd stick with it! There's no difference between the fast 1.1 and fast 1.1 rev2

you can use both on live, BUT the ixtreme firmware does NOT boot unstealth games (extra insurance) the Xtreme does, so if you want to play on live with it and you flash the xtreme firmware but accidently boot an unstealthed backup you might get banned!

Do I need to upgrade to this if I'm using the fast firmware for iXtreme Benq V1.1?

Is the only change the quiet firmware's read speed?

Thanks.

I'm interested to know also, since I haven't modded my xbox yet as I don't have right chipset to do it (ICH7R here) and there are no VIA SATA cards that I can buy (in my country at least). I'd like to know how the quiet firmware performs in games so I could go to a friend and have it modded, but it's a hassle I'd like to do once, not once a week.
