FPGA

Notes

  • always corrupts????

DVD emulation

Performance Investigator for Xbox

Type 1

Seen on 512mb Development and Test kits. Ports for both DVD Emulations and PIX, depending on kit type.

Type 2

Xbox 360 XDK-GB. Retains risers left over from canceled GbE testing. Board still uses the same PCBs as Type 1, but the newly designed Sidecar shell covers the PIX port permanently.

Notes

  • Both Type 1 and 2 sidecars need to be manually plugged into motherboard via an extended cut in chassis. aka the worlds smallest hole.

Type 3

Designed for Xbox 360 S Development kits. Significantly more modular then previous sidecar types. Plugs into daughter board located inside unit. Hard drive remains seated into bay in console. PIX port has been completely removed from PCB.
