I was just wondeing, a friend of mine is looking to buy a duox 2 chip, but saw the two versions of the chip: the cromwell or the lite version. All I want is some opinions/pros/cons of them and how easy they are to install (b/cauz im installing it   ).
thanx!
btw, please dnt flame if this ? has been asked many times before, I just have never really "studied" a duox 2 before and was curious.

I'd say cromwell, as it has 2 512k banks to the lite's one. That becomes more useful if you ever mess up a flash and need to repair it (flipping a switch is a lot easier than hotswapping )

Also, since you should reflash the bios regardless of whether your chip come preflashed with a hacked bios (so that you have the best bios for your needs/hdd size/xbox version/ with features like IGR + live blocking) or not, the fact that the cromwell comes prelashed with Flashbios makes flashing the right hacked bios all that much easier (you can just network flash.. takes all of 30 seconds)

Hope that helps!
