Hello! I'm new here but the forums seem to have a good community so I thought I would join up.
Anyway, my 360 got banned last week but I have bought another new one, recovered gamertag etc etc and I am working fine with legitamate games.
My brother has a modded 360 but has not been banned, he goes on twice a year maybe and he now will never go online in fear of a ban.
I wondered, if I use my harddrive on that 'modded' console to play back-ups OFFLINE and then put the same harddrive back on my legit console is there any way I can get caught? Obviously no pre-release plays, just older games like Dirt2 and Brutal Legend that have been verified through abgx360.
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance
Brad

the worst that will happen is your bro gets banned if he goes online and then the hard drive will have to be formated to play on a different xbox.
you can still swap drives freely until the modded xbox gets banned, it will not get your legitimate xbox banned cuz you have the excuse of always telling MS that you got a used hard drive off ebay, so they will not do bans for swapping hard drive to different console.

If the console gets banned you lose the installing games functionality and game saves and new achievements will be corrupt on other 360s. If a banned 360 didnt do these things I would of kept my banned 360 and played backups on that and legits on the unmoded 360. even i have a 360 that is moded but not banned and Im not connecting that to live till a new firmware comes out.

i could care less about installing games or achievments, the only thing i would be remotely concerned with is game saves, even then though its not so much a big deal to me.

Just curious, My 360 has been banned almost 2 years now, and I can still install games to the hard drive. I have GTA LC installed on it right now. I guess whoever said you cant do that after a ban is wrong.

Minus Game Install Functionality, Can't you just delete the gamer profile and NOT the saves/achievements, and then when you move that HD to a new console that isn't banned, you recover the gamer tag and you can now access those saves on other consoles...
