360 Aladdin: Toshiba-Samsung DVD dual-FW Chip
>> Some confusion on the web again ... here's some real info about this '360 Aladdin' DVD FW chip, that has been around for a while already actually.
It's another 'dual' (or 'multiple') firmware chip for the Xbox 360 Toshiba-Samsung TS-H943 DVD drive. From what I can see it has 2 flashchips, probably one for the hacked Xtreme FW (to boot Xbox 360 games) and one for the Xtreme 008 FW (to read SS of Xbox 360 discs on PC). It connects with the eject and power points on the Xbox 360 motherboard so you can easily switch between the 3 modes (firmwares). Boot with the power button to load the C4E's Xtreme 0800 FW (too read SS of original discs on PC), boot with eject button for C4E's Xtreme FW (to read Xbox 360 DVD+DL discs) or boot your console with the controller to boot with original on-board chip.
The mod is installed by a PCB going around the TS-H943 onboard FW chip, so that means you'll have to remove all the epoxy that's around the chip first (which isn't so easy).
Unlike what some sources say, this chip can NOT boot any unsigned executables or games of a different region - it's a simple DVD FW replacement chip with eject/power button control.
