Flashing Hitachi GDR-3120 with ixtreme 1.51 and FirmwareToolbox 4.8
Published by elusiv1 on 2009-03-16


Introduction
Ok guys, I'm not the greatest at writing tutorials but if any of you guys are having problems with JungleFlasher 1.51 beta you can use FirmwareToolbox to flash your drive, I only used JungleFlasher to put the drive in Mode-B that's it...As most of you already know the rules set for FirmwareTool 4.8 are only for iXtreme 1.4 not 1.51... Here is how I flashed my 78 with FirmwareToolbox..

Microsoft .net framework 2.0 or 3.5 is required!

Xbox 360 Drive Detected in Windows
Here is how to manually get your Xbox 360 drive letter detected in Windows when using JungleFlasher 1.51 for mode B..

Control Panel, Add New Hardware Wizard, Wizard will search for new hardware recently installed on you computer, You will see a list of all your hardware recently installed, find your Xbox 360 drive then highlight it and click next..Your Xbox 360 drive will now appear in the control panel.

Install PortI/O 32 driver
Here's how to manually Install the PortI/O 32 driver.. Vista 64 user might have to go old school with Slax 2.1 for Mode B..JungleFlasher only works on 32 bit operating systems from what I've heard..

Go to control panel, Add New Hardware and click next, Wizard will scan for new hardware, You will be shown a list of hardware already on your pc, Scroll down and select "Add a new hardware device", You will then be asked if Windows should search for new Hardware, Select "NO" and install manually, Click the "Have Disk" and point Windows to the driver directory of the PortIO32 distribution, Click next to install your new hardware, Files will be copied and installed the click finish to complete

Flashing your Xbox 360 Drive
"MAKE SURE YOUR DRIVE IS STOCK BEFORE FLASHING TO IXTREME 1.51!!!!

Go to Tools > Direct Drive Flash (GDR Only) > Differential Flash (RESTORE FIRST!!! If you do the Patch method on an already hacked drive you will Brick it!!

1) Open the hacked firmware under firmware File, for 78/79 drives make sure your drives key info matches.. Here is an example,key information lookis like this....(@5e10) So the ixtreme hacked firmware should look like this...ix151-78-5e10.bin.

2) Copy and paste or type in your drives original key and hit save key when finished.

3) Go to Tools > Direct Drive Flash (GDR Only) > Differential Flash (PATCH)

4) Check that your Hitachi drive is selected in the drop-down list and Hit "Read and Detect Differences"

5) Select "Start Flashing" and let it finish..
