I have an RGH2 Trinity slim machine that was set up a long time ago which boots to Freestyle Dash. It has an internal 250GB HDD. My question is, what would be the best (optimal) way to upgrade the kernel and install Aurora and games onto this: I will be using a 2TB external USB drive and 750GB external USB drive for 360 games and XBLA (I'm not interested in emulators or OG Xbox games) and I don't want problems with multi-disc games. Thanks

@DinohScene has a tutorial on updating the kernel. as for switching to Aurora, you can easily do this in your dashlaunch's launch.ini file, just redirect to your Aurora's default.xex file.
It's a Toshiba external and I don't see any good way to open it to extract the HDD without destroying something - so how much slower is USB compared to internal?
USB loading is limited to USB 2.0 speeds, 25 MB/s iirc, the internal SATA bus is limited at SATA 1 but it's faster in theory already ;p
In the end, it's your decision but I'd vouch for upgrading the internal HDD.

For anyone curious, any of the internal HDDs, including the Elite and Launch editions, can be easily swapped without breaking anything. Those grey HDD units that slot onto the top of the launch white consoles can be opened easily. You just need to format the drive with a utility that will allow the 360 to read it. (I forget the utility or file system as it's been a minute, but Google lol)
party buffalo may be able to do this, but it's been so long that my memory is going away. also, the internal hdd is fatx.

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though. -

although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)

@BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.

If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.

and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
