I'd like to see an overhaul on an xbox 360 slim. You know like a clear shell, clear dvd drive, clear controller, led strips around the console with a modded ring of life. I also heard somewhere that you can put 2 internal drives inside of an xbox 360 slim, it would be pretty cool seeing that too. :D

Hmm that’s an interesting idea! I’m wondering if you can use the DVD drive’s SATA cable for a second drive. I know you can replace the internal 4GB drive in Trinity consoles with a USB port. Thanks for the ideas!

I just wanted to say that this is a perfect video to get started modding my PS2 fat. Of course the only thing is that I never tried to mod a game console before, but at least your video is somewhat simple to do and copy the steps. But again, thanks.

Hey man, how is it performing 2 years later? I just performed this mod myself on an SCPH-30001R model with the same 12V fan. Just curious, because I keep seeing conflicting information online saying it's not as efficient as the stock fan because of the voltage difference (Noctua fan not running at rated speed due to the PS2's lower fan voltage). Thanks, and I enjoy your videos very much.

I’ve done it on an Xbox 360. The same fans in that video are not enough to cool the temps go straight to 70c and then proceeds to over heat on the 360 phat definitely possible to put quieter fans in there. The original Xbox I’m pretty sure people have done

Do the noctua fans improve air flow to counteract the decrease in voltage? I did a similar fan mod, but the 12v fans I tested didn't seem to have enough air flow at the PS2 fan's voltage to keep the temperature from running away. When testing the stock fan, the temperature would get plateau after a few minutes, but with the 12v fans, the temperature kept increasing. I eventually just stopped the test, since I didn't want the unit to overheat. I ended up swapping out some resistors in the fan circuit to give the 12v fan a little more juice. Maybe this wouldn't have been a problem if I had used a noctua fan lol

@@RestorationRelaxation I ran the probe of an electronic meat thermometer through memory card slot 2 and rested it in between the two heat sinks above the motherboard with the tip of the probe facing the disc drive. I think I took the memory card door off of the shell so that didn’t get in the way and then gently wedged a memory card into slot 2 next to the probe cable to simulate the door still being there. Then I played mgs3 for 20-30 minutes while keeping an eye on the thermometer
