Hello

New here and have tried searching for the answers to my questions but getting a bit lost in all the information.

I am considering purchasing a 'pre-modded' XBOX 360 Elite. Can someone please provide me with a lowdown on these? For example:

I have seen some advertised with iextreme 1.6 pre-flashed.. is this sufficient?

I have heard about stealth backups but how are these made and how do you ensure the backup you have is stealth compatable?

Thank you.

1. A console modded with 1.6 is enough. That is the latest iXtreme.

2. Look in my sig to learn how to use ABGX to make sure the games are stealth patched.

Read the ABGX guide. You want it flashed with iXtreme 1.6 nothing else ever (1.5 is ok).

Thanks for the speedy replies.

I remember with the old XBOX a large HDD could be used to store games and access from a custom dashboard.. is this possible with the 360? Is there any advantage in getting the 360 ELITE with the 120GB HDD?

Cheers.

You can install games to the HDD for better performance during gameplay but you will still need the disc in the drive.

Is there any advantage then to the ELITE model?

Does anyone have any recommendations of where to purchase a 'pre-modded' console?

Thanks.
