Team Xecuter: Dual-FW mod, FW Patch Mod, USB to ODD/HDD Adapter & More

**Sanj[UK]** · 1st July 2006

>> Team Xecuter(info) sent us some news about some of their upcoming products.

* They designed a dual firmware for the Xbox360 DVD drives. This will not be an Xecuter-branded product however (they just made it 'for fun' for those who want it, but installing a dual FW mod can be pretty complex):

Here is a picture of the dual firmware [DVD] mod we said we'd design to give out to people who wanted to use this kind of thing as the current designs were a bit shoddy in our opinion - it also includes an external LED status module. This wont be an "official" Xecuter product as such and will be very cheap to buy without compromising excellent build quality.

The "official" Xecuter 360 [DVD firmware 'on-the-fly' patch] mod is in progress and will be much more user friendly with the main focus on addons and upgradeability. A shout out to Commadore4Eva - none of the ODD mods would be possible without the excellent developments he has given the scene, we take no credit for any of this, we just want to make his work easier to implement.

We have also intergrated our USB to ODD [Optical Disk Drive] adapter with the HDD version also so its an all in one and you don't have to buy a seperate HDD USB product saving you $40+. Currently supports flashing / reading Hitachi drives 100% in Windows - Samsung is proving a little tricky - not decided yet whether to release a Samsung version seperatly to expedite the release - more news soon on that shortly.

Xecuter can also confirm that we have begin heavy investigation into homebrew on the 360 - it's looking more possible each day - who knows what can happen over the summer - no promises but it's the area we prefer and if it can be done it will be done.
