Greetings,

If someone has the time to give me a refresher as its been 10+ years and I ain't getting any younger. I have an Xbox 360 Phat (Falcon) Though It has a flashed Drive, years ago I remember doing a Vampire hack on the drive to get the DVD Key and that drive Died shortly after, so I got a new one flashed the DVD Key and it sat, in the meantime I had a slim that i did a RGH on and forgot all about this Phat one. I am now wanting to Sell the Phat drive modded/unmodded I don't care honestly. Its in great condition looks new as it was barely used, but as i was Testing everything out I loaded in real discs and a couple DVDr's Halo 4 in particular asked me to update, I said no but got to wondering if I sell this console and someone does do an update and overwrites the Nand I think i recall that having the ability to Red Ring the system and i certainly wouldn't want that to happen to anyone.

So what is my Options? Can I remove the flashed firmware on the drive? (I do have an X360USB Pro still) Can I just flash it with a more recent firmware upgrade to the Drive? OR is there a Safe way to update the console to the last firmware? I apologize it's been so many years since I had touched a 360 and I can't remember all the details of this as I have not been in the loop for so long. Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Wish I could offer help, I've never been crazy enough to kamikaze my Winbond chip, always done jtag and RGH to consoles.

If it helps the Current Dashboard on the System is 2.0.135990.0 I heard that in the 13xxxx line was the last Drive update so I don't know the specific one but if below it seems like i need to flash back to stock, if above update wouldn't hurt.... I'm guessing?

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency

    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
