Guys,

I'm wanting to know what the best mod-chip would be for a new Xbox360 I'm gonna grab this weekend probably. I think I have the backup-s down, but I assume they wont play without the mod chip, correct? There is no software which makes 1:1 backups w/o need for a chip , correct? So which one to buy? I want top o' the line chip with no probs, and any other pointers would be great. Aprreciate the help if anyone out there.

Just soft mod your drive, that will allow you to play backups. Search on here or google to find out how. Ask here if you have any questions after you have done a bit of research

ok, so i was looking into it and you reccommend flashing the drive instead? should be easier im sure. Am i gonna need special tools to "unlock" the box or anything? do you know where the software to flash comes from? I have flashed my own PC drives before, but this may be differrent , you know anything about it?

If its a new xbox you will get a Lite-On drive which is a little more complicated than most. Opening the 360 is very easy there are countless youtube videos to talk you through step by step.

As for the firmware most get it from xbins (using autoxbinx) they are available via bittorrent and other p2p
