you will get boards that will not come to life,,i use to try a least 2 times,,after that just leave them,,and if per chance you do decide to invest in a reflow station,,keep the boards off to one side,,and then try them again,,with the station,,things will get better then,,,

@ coorva, I use my glorified aoyue heatgun with its little knobbies and little special attachments sometimes. Sometimes, I just hole up the Wagner and BLAM, one switch, w/low and high heat work great!

"All drives should be updated to Lite Touch + (LT+) firmware if playing on XBOX live. Samsung drives and pre-78/79 Hitachi drives do not utilize AP 2.5. All other drives are considered to be detectable by Microsoft (YMMV). Make sure all rips are ABGX verified, contain SSv2, and patched AP2.5 (where needed). XGD3 must currently be burned on new drive with PC Burner Max firmware for 100% rip. All modded consoles can be potentially unsafe for use on XBOX live."

well 0012 is overheating so something is wrong with your x-clamp replacement. 0021 is probably the worse error though because it's a bridged solder joint or short somewhere. Basically means it's fried.

Not without having equipment that costs more than the 360 itself
