Shipping Progress & Mid-Week Update

There have been many shipments to resellers this week, however we are still in the middle of the first batch so please be patient if your reseller hasn't shipped your goods yet. We are shipping every single day so all of the first batch shipments should be completed by the end of the week. We will then move onto the second batch which is the final retail versions complete with the case. We expect those to leave the factory around March 25th (Again, this is a conservative estimated date. It could be a few days before or after).

There have been some superb reports from X360USB PRO users this week, as predicted they couldn't believe how easy it was to use and that it did exactly as advertised. One user in the IRC support room this morning had a bricked Benq and luckily our support guys were on hand to guide him through the easy process of unbricking his drive in just a few short steps with only using the X360USB PRO and no other tools or having to open up the DVD drive.

One thing of note was that one of our members BeastyX found that he had some issues when using connecting his 360 HDD to his PC using the X360USB PRO. The internal command set of the X360USB PRO made the drive throw up an E69 error even though nothing was changed on the drive. We found that most modern USB/SATA chipsets adjust the HPA of the drive by 1 sector and this causes the drives security bit to be locked. It's an easy fix and we are looking at a workaround for it. No data is lost and the drives can be easily accessible in Windows to backup / edit etc. So for now don't connect your 360 HDD's to your PC using the X360USB PRO until we make a patch for that particular check. Here is a guide to fix the security bit.

We have many more guides coming this week too, and we have even had some of our customers post videos of their experience and first impressions. Here's a few:
