i want to mod my x-box so i can put a different dvd drive in but i am wondering if this will make it so i can't use x-box live. anyone have some insight on this?
yes, its possible, but its not guaranteed to not get you busted. when you use one of the various autoinstallers (slayers or FF's), they typically have an option called stealth install. what this does, is set up your larger hard drive in multiple partitions so that when the mod chip is turned off, the xbox and xbox live is "blind" to the other data. anyway, thats the gist of it, so that the other files on there are undetectible.
EDIT:// i just tried looking at xbox-scene for anything that mentioned the stealth install, but i cant find anything. anyway, ill try to answer any more questions you might have . . .
I would stay away from live with a modded box, i was useing xb connect for multiplayer gaming with my modded box and it works fine for me and its free ...
you dont have to mod your xbox if you get the samsung xbox drive it plays all "Backups" on dvd or cd if thats what your after doing if you want to put a standard pc drive in you need a few tools and a modded xbox box motherboard i suggest using avalaunch auto installer it shoud sort out most of you problems that may pop up in the transfer
