No, you have to flash the firmware on your xbox DVD drive. Problem is that only 1 of 3 firmwares has been released for the slim as of yes (the lite on 9504) so you may not be able to flash it.

There are 3 types of drives, 1 hitachi and 2 liteons. Open your xbox drive, if you tray looks like this




This means you have Liteon drive, you will then need to open it your console (look on youtube for tutorials) and look for the firmware number on the top of your drive. If it says, " FW VER: 9504 " then you are good to go!

You can also get a good idea of what drive you have by looking up certain details at Linkie but the only definitive way is to open it.
