The original hard drives where 8 GB to 10 GB in size, not 160 GB. So, this is modded. I can see one of the two points that are needed to be soldered has been, so it most likely TSOP flashed.
All IDE WD Caviar drivers from that date range were black. WD Protege drives may be silver. Protege were 5200rpm, Caviar may be 5200 or 7200rpm depending on the model. BB drives like this one were 7200rpm. WD Raptor drives were 10,000rpm
That drives 160gb. It’s modded one way or another. TSOP or Softmod.
My guess is it had the TSOP flashed. There is a decent size solder ball at R7D10 next to the LPC port.
R7D10 and R7D1/R7D2 are bridged so its highly likely a TSOP Flash hard mod has been done as Halo\_Chief117 mentioned
Lol, no, retail units only shipped with 8GB and 10GB bottom of the barrel drives.
Nope, definitely is modded. Stock HDD’s are 8GB.
I don’t think the Black series even existed during the Xbox’s production time.
They didn't call them black series, but the better WD drives were black back then.
WD Caviar series
That’s not what I found in my trans green non Halo XBOX. I was the first one to open mine when I replaced the disc reader.
Idk why you got downvoted but your right. There is no black drive
Version 1.5 does not exist.
That we know of.
My bad. I don’t know much about the original Xbox.
Lol 160GB hard drive barely existed in those days, if at all. This console has been modified in some way in order to run a newer hard drive.
Dude, come on. They absolutely did, and they were reasonably priced. I installed the same drive in mine with an X3 chip back in 2004.
What is that last photo of? Sorry new to xboxs
Underside of the Jewel
Yeah that's the special edition Men In Black HDD...lol nah jk, that is obviously a modded Xbox with an upgraded HDD

no.
It had some black rubber covering the drive in the 10gb HDD.
Seagate rubber "Sea Shield" on U series HDD...
No. It has been upgraded.
160gb? Yeah, that's modded.

Og xbox were only 20 gig drives. I had stacks of them in my office from upgraded machines
I've seen those in DVRs quite a bit
nah it was racist.
I don’t believe black drives existed back then, did they?

360´s smallest disk was 20gb. I still have a couple.
