Okay so I had a firmware-hacked Xbox 360, and I updated to dashboard 2.0.1346, which of course stopped all backups from running. I have no hacking tools and had already bought the xbox pre-hacked, and I don't quite understand the process. I have a Philipps & Lite-on DVD drive, model No. Dg-16D2S-09C. I'm willing to buy the needed equipment and I understand technical instructions well enough, but the thing is they use too many terms and mention too many hacks that I don't already know, I've read stuff such as PMT that I don't really get. Where can I find a detailed or a set of detailed tutorials that will help me accomplish that? The jungleflasher tutorial tells me that I need my original firmware before 2.0.1346.. I don't have that, so am I screwed? It also didn't mention how I'm going to connect the DVD drive, is it directly through SATA? or do I need to buy this VIA card thing? and what excactly is RAID? I'm sorry that I have too many questions, I just need someone to put me on the right track, thank you
