We think its safe to say that the recent crop of XBL bans have come about by M$ collecting your eeprom data including your HDD serial number / key when you sign up to Xbox Live for the first time - this is what's known as the "Marriage Theory".

So basically if you upgrade your hard drive after signing up to XBL your account will get fried. We feel there is no "drive scanning" taking place so dont be paranoid about where you are storing your files.

Solution?: Upgrade your hard drive BEFORE signing up to the XBL service.

Better Solution?: Hacking the firmware of the upgraded hard drive to have the same serial number / key as your stock hard drive.

We will have a play - as I'm sure others will.



Not sure if you read this or not it was posted on the main page.

should answer you questions on what to do.

Re: liteon Dg-16d2s

all liteons are the same hardware, so any liteon will do.
You erase it , it is now a blank liteon, you then write 78450c firmware to it with your info spoofed into it, it is now the same as what was in the drive originally.
