Yes, as long as it's not the new slim 360.

Yes. However, you may have a JTAG-ABLE console if you're on the old style blade dashboard (revision 2.0.7363.0 and earlier, usually)...in which case, JTAG it or sell it so someone can JTAG it.

"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."

It doesnt have to be the old blade style dash, just 7371 or below.

Good catch miketrev, I should have specified that as well.
