I can't remember how to do it without the chip other than doing a tsop flash. But before you can lock it you have to format the drive which if you go into the Disk Tools menu of the x3 you will see the new drive setup menu go into that and then follow the directions, once done restart the xbox and then go back into the Disk Tools menu and this go into the current hdd setup menu and then you will see the HDD locking option.

X360USB PRO Shipping To Resellers Begins

Source: www.x360usb.com

We missed our target shipping date by just 3 days, but we got there eventually :)

The first batch of X360USB PRO is in the process of being quality tested and packed and is expected to leave our factory in China (-8 GMT) on Thursday March 10th.

We have paid for the fastest shipping service possible, but even so, several hundred kilos will take more than just a day or two :)

Our main resellers have given us an order so they each get a quantity of the no-case "early adopter" version, and then of course they will get the rest of their orders which will include the complete unit including case. We expect those to start leaving the factory on March 25th (This is a conservative estimated date. It could be a few days before or after). Please bear in mind that not all resellers have put early orders in, so some of them probably won't have stock at the same time as others. That is through no fault of our own and we can only cater to those who made their orders well in advance. We suggest you check with your preferred reseller to make sure they have placed their orders in time.

Resellers have also asked us to remind you that they will be shipping to their customers on an date-ordered basis. So as always with a pre-order type product it is first come, first served. So those who were lucky enough to order from day one will be first on the list.
Bear in mind that there are tens of thousands of IC's to program and we have strict quality assurance procedures in place where each and every unit is run through a serious of tests individually to make sure you receive the best quality product.

We worked real hard on this one and are very excited to see everyone's reaction as to how simple it is to use. Thank you for your patience, not too long now :)

It's been a pleasure testing this one! - I, like Uber, am interested to see the feedback on this. Gone are the days of trying to set up VIA cards etc.
Plug it in - simple driver install after auto detect - done!

Its a pleasure to use and i can, after many years of working on the floor, now work on top of my desk :)

USB Cables ftw

Can we use this unit as the DVD drive's power source also? Many thanks to everyone!

No the drive still requires a power source - the connectivity kits that many people have still carry out that function perfectly.

On a side note: I received my retail version of X360USB Pro through the post yesterday - so far it is awesome, very fast, very stable and detects drives with absolute ease. Also can be used to connect ripping drives to your PC without any hassles at all. I love this product.;)

I most defiantly cant wait to get mine! No more opening my rig's side panel. What a relief! Im grateful for this unit and the hard work put into it by all of you guys, just wish there was a port to connect the DVD drive's power cord into. Thanks for all you guys hard work that was involved :D
