    So i was modding an xbox and somehox i ****ed up and a small chip on the hard drive caught fire (lol i know go ahead say it) and any ways i wanna mod it still so is it still possible? I do have an extra hard drive. I wanna know how to install it because most tut i see have you modding your hd not switching it out for a bigger one and also the ones i do find is upgrading the hd on an already softmodded xbox which i dont have.

    So basically i wanna softmod an xbox with a brand new hard drive and i dont have any of the info copied form the old hard drive thats burned up
