If you are getting a new XBOX 360, then it will have the Lite-ON drive. The Lite-ON drive requires additional hardware (key reader probe/spear) to get the information off of the drive. Then you flash it with iXtreme so you can play your back-up copies. If the game is region free, you can play it on NTSC or PAL. With NXE dashboard, all you have to do is click Y when you have the game inserted, and then select install to hard drive. The game must be in the 360 each time you want to play it though.

If it is hard to get the hardware in you area, you might want to have somebody go ahead and do it for you.
With a Lite-ON you need:
Key reader (Maximus Spear, CK3 Probe, or a homemade probe)
DVD connectivity kit (optional with the homemade probe, but required with for the spear or probe)
Compatible SATAchipset (some onboard might work or the VIA SATA card with the 6421 chipset)
With the BenQ, Samsung, or Hitachi:
Compatible chipset to dump the firmware DVD connectivity (optional but makes it easier so you don't have to use the XBOX 360 to power the drive)
You will dump your key and info and inject it into iXtreme firmware and flash your custom iXtreme firmware back to your drive. This will allow you to play a back-up game. No mod chips involved.
