tsop is the same as modchip but you dont need to use a modchip since you can use the xboxs bios chip instead, you gotta softmod first to be able to flash the tsop tho. if you get a modchip you can just plug in and go youd probably wanna upgrade the hdd though. Both tsop and modchip are better than softmodding. If you tsop you can reset to a non softmodded state after but you will have the tsop flashed with a custom bios

from my experience modchips can have onboard rom banks to boot off instead of using the xbox bios. Handy if you have a CPU modded system to change clock speeds for games that don't play well with non-stock speeds. also booting dev bios

You don't need to hotswap unless you're trying to upgrade the drive while you're softmodded. All you need to softmod is a cheap copy of Splinter Cell and one of those USB adapters.
>>8233582
Mine is TSOP flashed, and all I had to do to upgrade the hard drive was drop the new one in and set it up with a Hexen disc. No idea if it's any more complicated than a modchip for RAM or CPU upgrades though.

There is some convoluted hotswap trick for softmodding, but you can also swap in any other working xbox drive.
Modchip might be a better bet, but it's still going to be a pain to do some things without a drive.

you only need to softmod to be able to boot the hexen disc and can remove the softmod after you have flashed the tsop. The only things to need to buy are a xbox to usb adapter and a copy or splinter cell or some other game with a save exploit.

Shit you regret not buying 10+ years ago.

There's a very small list of compatible DVD drives, and any you find will most likely not be on it. Your best best is to get a drive from a different xbox.
alternatively, the lowest effort option is to just softmod it and play games off the stock hard drive. It only has room for one game, so you'll need to delete and transfer again every time you want to play a different game. Kind of shitty, but it's the only method to get your xbox playing games again that doesn't involve new hardware or even opening the xbox.

You should open your Xbox and remove the clock cap. Not doing so will lead to its early death.

>> No.8236084

>>8236012
Revising this advice:
With a dead DVD drive, you'll still need to open the Xbox and do some hotswap fuckery between the Xbox and a PC (USB to IDE adapter) to do any mods to it. Even with a modchip, you won't be able to put a dashboard on it without a DVD drive. Order a replacement Xbox DVD drive or make a friend IRL who does Xbox stuff that can help.

If you have a TSOP or a modchip, you can build a drive from scratch with xboxhdm. It seems like a pain to do compared to just using a disc though.

I found a few just looking around on ebay. Found a few dead consoles that probably have working drives too.
If opening up the console isn't the problem though, you could try taking the drive apart, cleaning the laser, and adjusting the potentiometer to see if it'll last long enough to mod it.

If you're actually going to swap the disc drive, use the save exploit:
https://www.reddit.com/r/originalxbox/wiki/gse
If you're not, then hotswap:
https://www.reddit.com/r/originalxbox/wiki/hotswap
Not even going to bother linking hardmod stuff, if you can't find it, you're just going to brick your console.
TSOP and modchip can do the same stuff, but you have to softmod first to TSOP and it's harder to brick your console with a modchip.
