    Im not personally familliar with that drive but, it is very possible that those disks are not compatable with the xbox. (and most likely)

    yeah, just download a BIOS checker. I know xbins has one, you could probably get one via torrents aswell. (do you know what xbins is?)

    yeah, that wont "update" anything though, you can just change setting. and u can only use M8 with that i believe.

    if its a soft mod then you cant change your bios. and thats why you still have the retial/original bios.
