Hello all, I've decided to got an xbox 1 since they are dirt cheap now and make quite a good media centre / player, but how do I get started. I know this is a no brainer to some but I dont have the slighetst!

Im gonna buy my unit second hand so worst case it could be a 1.6 board, we'll se in the comming fututre.
Whats the best way to mod the xbox.

What I want from it:

A) XBMC to play movies from the hard disk
B) the ability to play games from the hardisk. (thinking xbox mini in mind)
C) the ability to upgrade the hard disk, non-restrictive of locking stuff. so any IDE / sata on converter.
D) the ability to remove the dvd drive perminatly or replace the stock one with a laptop form factor one.

So whats my options?

TSOP, ModChip, Game exploit every time?

Also where do I get an xbox modchip in the UK these days? Anywhere prefribly with PayPal.

Also whats the likelyhood of a brick doing a TSOP is there any backup bootlader to restore from a brick?

Regards, Steve

You don't need Xbox Live, just a live-enabled game.

The solution without buying a game is to load Splinter Cell, load the exploit gamesave, then as soon as the softmod installer menu appears you FTP to the Xbox and replace the contents of the C partition with a new clean copy of the Xbox dash, version 5960. Once that's done you continue with the Krayzie softmod installer - backup the eeprom, FTP it to your PC, then select basic install, UnleashX dashboard.
