The Wasabi 360 is a
Xbox 360 HDD Loader
for the Phat and Slim Xbox 360 consoles that emulates the DVD drive. It works by
tricking the 360 into thinking the game on the external hard disk is actually in
the disc drive. This means you can keep your whole library of games on an
external hard disk eliminating the need to swap games keeping your discs
unscratched and in pristine condition. To date the Wasabi x360 plays all Xbox
360 games including the new XGD3, AP26, AP2.5, and all Wave formats without the
need to patch. Furthermore Wasabi Xbox
360 also supports all Xbox 1
games that Microsoft has officially emulated.
To select games on
Xbox 360 loaders
like the Wasabi , you use the official dashboard’s Video Library to browse
through your games loaded on your e-SATA HDD. This means you can change games
without even moving off the couch! Furthermore the Wasabi
Xbox 360 Optical Disc Drive Emulator
has been designed with upgradeability in mind meaning if Microsoft ever did
come up with new game protection the Wasabi team should respond with an update
(update your Xbox 360 at your own risk).
The features of the
Wassabi 360 are similar to that
of the X360Key and other Xbox 360 hard
disk mod solutions. One big
improvement however is the adoption of eSATA technology. eSATA Hard Disks offer
six times the speed of conventional USB 2.0 external hard disks. In fact during
testing Team Wasabi found that their solution offered read speeds at around
80mbps, far better than the competitor’s solution which failed to crack 40mbps.
Of course the downside to eSATA is slightly higher costs but we have sourced a
stack of affordable eSATA harddrives pre-installed with all the software. Ask in
store for more details.

Please note:
Updating your Xbox 360 can block the Wasabi 360 modchip or even worse. Update at
your own risk. We do not recommend using the Wasabi Xbox 360 online, use online
at your own risk! The Wassabi 360 is not compatible with USB hard drives, it is
only compatible with E-Sata Hard Disks. We sell hard drives pre-installed with
the Wasabi software in either 1TB or 2TB sizes, please ring for more info.
Currenly only the Hitachi 0500 Drive in the Slim Xbox 360 is currently not
