Hey guys, I just had thought, i wanted to go on live but was afraid of getting banned, even tho i wud not use burnt game wen accessing live.

The thought tho is if its possible to use more than 1 dvd drives on the 360. If so, cud it mean that we cud 1 Flashed dvd drive and one un-flashed. Therefore, 1 cud use to play all games including burnt ones, and wen in need to use live u wud insert the un-flashed dvd drive.

Just a thought, dnt know if its possible to use more than 1 drive. :D

it is possible to use 1 drive thats modded offline and the other online but no one can tell u for sure what microsoft is doing to check these games and such so no one can tell you whether or not its safe, i would say honestly, your just as much at risk

Thx u guys for ur responses.

I saw a Microsoft Xbox 360 HD-DVD Player Add-On on www.newegg.com which I'm thinking to purchase. I wanted to know if it can work in the xbox 360 shell? I d'nt see where it has a SATA port. If it can work do u think it can be flashed?

Do you think using usb connector to connect from the drive to my PC would allow me to flash it using the same method textbook uses?

Thx for your very appreciative response.

swapping drives in and out sound like to much work, but if you wanted to do that you could do it safely by disconecting you ethernet cable when using the flashed drive.

You could make a SATA switch so switch between drives if u were really that worried... Or you could just stealth you games and play online for however long you can until you get banned...

so does that mean its inevitable that you will get banned with stealth patched games?because i take all precautions with abgx but is it full proof?

We will never know until we get someone that works for microsoft to tell us what they can do

yea you could, say if you have a benq flash it back to original then buy a new one flash it with old key, rig some dvd and sata switches (NOT SPLITTERS) and your done. i know you can do this becasue if you unplug your dvd drive completely from your 360, while ON, and plug it back in it still play a game fine WITHOUT A SYSTEM RESTART. only problem now is where to put the second drive? or you could build a quik swap rig where you could insert each drive like an NES cartirage lol(good idea)

No, it's not another (WOW Power Leveling) worgen post. I'd roll a goblin, anyway, and not merely because of factional preference. I spent too many hours as an n00b getting repeatedly pwnt in Silverpine Forest, which has made me (Buy WOW Gold) as bitter as powdered aspirin towards those furry bastards; I'd gank myself. No, this (WOW Gold) is the midsummer swoon, when folks tend to go through the motions in the long, hot stretch (at least in the Northern hemisphere), twiddling their (Aion Gold) thumbs between increasingly monotonous dungeon runs, idly considering rolling yet another alt or take a (Aion Gold) hiatus altogether to go hit some conventions and interact in the big blue room.
