Correct. Dont do the drill hack, not a great idea. If you have MXIC id go with the the switch beause you only solder. The probe you have to cut traces. Thats just my personal opinion though.

I was going to get a replacment PCB but i thought I might as well try the drill hack first, worst case I have to get the replacement PCB :tongue:

Quick question tho, I connected my drive up using the xbox for power while I was waiting for my CK3 lite to see if I needed the x360usb or not. It shows up all the vendor, name and fw revison but it doesnt show "verified" in the DVD Key box.

Do I need x360usb or is this because I couldnt do the power cycle and dump the Key?

X360USB is simply sata to USB. I believe its beacuse you just need to dump it, all because it hasnt read your key yet to verify it. After you dumo and read the key it should verify.

I have a question and I hope you can help me. I'm new to flashing 360's so bare with me. I'm wanting to flash/re-flahs/update my Slim 360. I've read through tons of tutorials, but there is just so many different methods, me being a noob, I don't know which ones exactly to follow.

I know it had the kamekazi method done before and it was previously flashed running backup games. Unfortunately, I did an update and it no longer runs any backups. I hope you can help.

Main question is, if it's already been drillied/kamekazi'd once, will I have to do that again? Also, how do I go about updating to the latest firmware allowing me to run backups?

Thank you very much in advance.

Alright, so it has already had the hack completed, correct? What you will need to do is when you reach the part of the tutorial where it asks you to unlock the drive, you will take a q-tip with a little bit of rubbing alcohol on it and put it in the hole where the drill hack was performed. If you need more help, PM me, I am a tad busy ATM and I will help you as soon as I can.

what all did you do to flash without the ck3 lite i can also power up the drive with both cords
Wouldn't be a good idea to power the drive with a console. It is a known flag. You'd just be better off getting an XK3Y. No need to burn any games or hassle with XGD3 burns. Just download and put on a compatible HDD.
