A.Softmodding is a form of modification you can do to your Xbox, without having to open it. It has become more popular over the last year or so because of the simplicity of it, plus being able to be installed within minutes instead of what can take hours with a modchip.Once your Xbox is Softmodded, you can proceed to install programs (or store movies, music etc.) on the remaining space on your Xbox E Partition. This partition was designed by Microsoft to be used as a game save location, but since they have allocated around 5 gigabytes to this area, you can easily store your own stuff on there. Just make sure you leave around 400mb free for game saves, most people shouldnt need more than that.It will also allow you to play burned DVDs (using DVD Region X) and burned Games. Depending on your Xboxs DVD Drive you may also be able to use CD-R or CD-RW media for smaller games, or for transferring over data.
