Hello Everyone, I writing Because I bought and New xbox 360 and I want to make the firmware modding to play backups. But I look around for info about it and Im confuse on some things.

Its there a firware version for the hitachi drive and the samsung drive? which firmware version is better for hitachi and samsung drives?
for making the firmware replace I need a chip or something similar or is easy like see on the web, connecting the drive on a pc, dump the original firmware, replace the lines, and flash the drive again and finish?

See ya Later.

You Do Not Need to Look For Any Firmware Until FIRST YOU KNOW What DRIVE and FIRMWARE VERSION Your 360 DVD-ROM Is!

This Might Be a Good Start!

Is your 360 a Hitachi or Sammy?

This will tell you weather you have a Sammy or Hitachi! Which is yours?

Then you MUST Open the Console to Find your Actual Fw "Firmware Version"


This is Mine: See I have a Hitachi With Firmware VER: 0078fk
or more commonly refereed to as a "Hitachi 78" ...... That means I needed the Firmware Tool Box to flash My Drive, But that Might not be the Case For You!!!!!

Once you know your 360 Make (Sammy or Hitachi) and Firmware version Example Hitachi ver 47, 49 78 79 or Samsung ms25, ms28 ect, ect.

ONLY Then will you know the 360 Firmware and Software Tools, and method needed to Flash your 360 DVD-Rom!


GoodLuck, If you need further assistance or once you have that info - Make and Firmware version you can PM me back or start a new thread in the modified DVD Firmware part of this Forum. A good title for your thread would be something like: "Need Help Flashing Samsung ms25 or Hitachi 79(Whatever your Make and Firmware version is)
