You could always try a solderless adapter if you don't want to solder. _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide

What do you people reccomend?
Free modchip and then get a bigger HDD or just simply buy a premodded one?

premodded is boring. You don't learn anything, and the doing is half the reason for doing at all _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide

Well a big HDD is only 70 to 100 a premodded Xbox is only 200 to 250 with the size of the HDD. But why not use your money in better ways? _________________ The mighty V6 Passat came to chew bubble gum and kick%^* and shes all out of bubble gum!

I took my xbox HDD out, and I know what to do, so I'd just get the chip and get a better HDD.
Do you reccomend a 100GB HDD?

If your going to do it do it right...you can get nice 200gb for 70 bucks. But sure 100 gb will allow you to backup some games. _________________ The mighty V6 Passat came to chew bubble gum and kick%^* and shes all out of bubble gum!

The fun is opening your xbox up and installing it, then once its installed you'll have even more fun
When i bought a modchip, i didnt have a clue what to do. Xbox-hq was and still is my place for answers
I reccomend you buy a solderless chip because they are easy to install. As for which one you want, that depends. You have to know what version of xbox you have and you might want a cheap, descent, or good chip.
If you have a problem installing it, youve come to the right place; Xbox-hq will answer your problems in no time

A "solderless" is not a chip. Its a type of chip. You can either buy a chip where you have to solder wire (not recomended for newb by me), or buy a chip where you dont have to solder. ALl you do is stick wires in holes. But your lucky. Instead of placing 5 wires, you only have to place 1 wire.
Mod chips- www.divineo.com, for you i recomend the Xecuter 2.6 CE Lite Plus
Yours would look knida like this:

Yes, I understand that, I was asking Pson.
Do I have to install a modchip to the bottom of the Motherboard?

A modchip is installed to the top side of the mother board right below the DVD tray. _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide
