Is my xbox modded?

I'm a noob and proud of it - lol; here is my question: I bought a modded xbox and want to put a larger hard drive in it. I have viewed forums on how to do this if you have a hardware or software modded xbox. Is there a way to tell if the unit is softmodded or if it has a modded chip in it? Any help would be appreciated.

 

if it was modded u should have a diffrent dash like evox or unleashx but not a normal one..

 

It has both evox and unleashx installed on it and either can be selected to be the dashboard. Does that tell me if it is a software mod vs. a chip mod?

 

it is modded umm look at the bottom of the xbox does it look like it been opened....and if it has a chip when u turn on ur xbox and it has the big X and under it there should be the name of the chip and if its softmodded then it just says microsoft

 

Yeah, I'd say it's softmodded. When it boots, it says microsoft under the big X, and I don't see any special chip installed inside. A lot of the forums say to backup your eeprom.bin file under the xbox c:\linux_backup\ folder, but I only have a c:\backup folder. Does that mean there is another way of softmodding besides using linux? or is the folder name not important.

 

its another way 2 soft mod its important if u wanna uninstall ur soft mods so dont delete it

 

So what is the best way to upgrade the hard drive if Linux was not used for the softmod?

 

linux has 2 be used 4 soft mods and splintercell.mecassault,or 007 agent under fire

 

OK. Thanks for all of your help. I'll give it a go. WOOT
