Según leo en
xbox-scene, anuncian la aparición de un nuevo chip llamado Globe 360, para la carga de backups usando un firmware modificado del lector. No sé si se ha comentado ya esta noticia, pero he buscado y no me ha aparecido.
La verdad, parece mejor que el chip del team underdog, pero todavía no tiene fecha de aparición. De momento son solo parole, parole, parole... Lo mejor: no hace falta extraer la key del lector, interruptor electrónico mediante el botón de encendido-apagado (tipo chips de xbox1) y es reprogramable.

I want to signal the upcoming release of a new modchip for X360, Globe-360. This is not simply a dual-firmware mod, with this modchip you don't need to extract the drive-key from your console because it's PLUG&PLAY. Thanks to the ACTEL CPLD this modchip bypass the drive-key check; your original firmware stays intact all the time. There is no need for any firmware-reading or flashing, you can reprogram the on-board flash easliy with independent eprom programmer (aka Willem-prog) and replace it in the clean socket PLCC connector. More details (price, diagrams, how-to, resellers,etc) will be available soon.
Features:
* Plug&Play : DON'T NEED the extraction of drive-key from the original firmware of drive on your console, only install the chip and the "unsigned" firmware on-board will be boot .
* Electronic Switch ON/OFF : enable or disabile the chip when turn-on your console by power button, you can check the state of chip by a led-indicator
* Firmware-drive UPGRADE: you can use an upgraded firmware for better performance of your dvd-drive to reading dvd-r DL support ( eg: you should use on LG/Hitachi the firmware vers. 059 instead your original 047D or 46D).
* Easy Reprogrammable Flash eprom: the on-board flash eprom is mounted on a socket connector for an easy and clean remove in order to fast reprogramming it.
* COMPATIBILE whit ALL DVD-drive on the market (LG e SAMSUNG).
* High reliability through ACTEL cpld technology.
