@BobbyBangin Thank you so much! I have been trying to find a vid like that on youtube all week! And @furtsiv thank you for your patience. My flash is a success!

The part I was missing was to click the "Spoof Source to Target" button.

Ok, How about this question. I have heard that only ONE kind of DVD drive will burn 360 backups? Is this true? So I have to buy a whole DVD Drive JUST to backup my games? Can't just use the one I already have?

Again, thanks for all your patience.

Just RGH it. For the cost of a burner that is required to burn backups and the price of dual layer DVD-R's, it's just easier (and cheaper in the long run). I'm brand new to the 360 entirely myself, and just got mine RGH'd and loving it. All the homebrew and running backups from external USB. It's the best option really.

Edit: Here's a quick RGH demo video I made. Mind you, it didn't glitch the first time I turned it on, but did on the second power on (which is normal).

Main problem is I have no idea how to find anyone who can do that kind of work or would be willing to. Not very established in my community. And I can't solder for ****. So for now, I am fine with burning discs if I have to. Just need to know what kind of drive to get. Are ALL iHas drives compatible or is it specific models?

A burner like this one will burn all games no problem.
Others will work, but you will have problems with some XGD3 games.

Also always use Vertabim DL DVDs. All others are crap.

I'm not sure where you live, but I found someone to do mine on iXtreme (under flash services). Sent my console off to him and he did a great job.

If I were to get that drive and it weren't already flashed, could I flash it myself using JungleFlasher? Where would I go to find the firmware for that?

Also, what is the difference between each model of the drive? For example, NewEgg has a LiteOn iHas124 for $18 and a LiteOn iHas224 and LiteOn iHas424 for $5 more. But the Tutorial I found online uses a LiteOn iHas324. Would the process for flashing each of these be different? Or could I flash a 124 with the Firmware from 624? The tutorial I found here states that I will need the upgrade.exe for the relevant drive. Where do I find that?

Sorry for all the noob questions.
