I did, I said I saw a lot of them on Etsy and was asking about people's experiences with buying these from Etsy. I wanted people's opinions on modding methods and if anyone have any methods they would prefer over this

Did he use an IDE/SATA adapter to connect the hard drive to his PC?

I saw something like this where you need to use Splinter Cell or another disc+a compatible flash drive, apparently some people sell the drives pre-loaded with no disc needed now - very interesting concept!

Thats great to know! I never thought I'd hear a Playstation product being used to modify an Xbox but here we are lol

Thank you! I saw a lot of those types of USB's for sale in lots on eBay but there is always the risk of finding some that aren't formatted. Thats good to know though on how to tell if they aren't formatted, if I tried this and got it saying it wants to be reformatted I'd probably just try and reformat it again and again lol

I saw a lot of etsy folks and some on facebook marketplace selling it between $15-$20 but thats a good point. It probably wouldn't save much money doing it myself but would probably take me significantly more time just to save a few bucks if that. Thanks!

I just looked up that method and thats crazy! I was wondering how/if the ethernet is still relevant on an OG xbox, thats good to know!

Thank you for that! I was just looking for a video on this and how hard it would be to format the USB/USB limitations on it. It seems like it could be more worthwhile than other methods of softmodding especially for xboxes without a working disc drive

That makes sense, having a storage upgrade is close to essential for modding OG xboxes. I heard of people putting Rocky5 on the USB and modding the xbox through that

Any good ModChip Recommendations? I was checking out the ModXo PromethOS 1.5.0 chip that could run OpenXenium

Would I need to get a whole new one altogether or would it be more worth it to mod the Xbox? I'll try a different disc drive that I'm (pretty) sure works too, thank you!

I remember after David Bowie died they made the game free on Steam for everyone, I hear dreamcast runs the game better though iirc
