I recently modded my second 360. It was broken 360 a friend gave me that I had fixed with the X-Clamp method. Works like a charm. I only modded it as a secondary option to play my current selection of backed-up games.
Now, I have one of the original Xbox 360 consoles, and it is incredibly loud. The modded Xbox is an elite, and it is significantly lower in sound. I have not connected the elite to the internet as I have no use for it as my back-ups are only there for if or when my hard copy is becomes problematic to read.
Recently, I've decided I rather play on the Elite. Here's the question:
Can I update an Elite with the NXE update that was recently released? And if so, will my Xbox LIVE Account be banned, even if all I play is legit, owned copies on that account?
