    Depending on the DVD Drive in your slim you will need:

    Opening is a torx 10 and persuasion flat head screwdriver for me but there are kits.

    CK3 Pro
    USB Pro
    Drill and template
    Chip
    Unlock probe
    Solder kit
    PCB
    Coolrunner
    Nand-x

    DG-16D4S is the easier one but there are 2 versions with different methods

    DG-16D5S needs RGH to get the drive key



    ...all in all if you're not going to flash more than one I'd get someone else to do it for you

    The template is not always reliable ADDZ. as each chip can be just a little bit away from the pins.

    You're better off zooming in with a high quality camera or a microscope and taking a picture of the pins under the eproxy and then count 5 from the right from the top and then 4 pins down the side of the right of the chip, then just mark yourself a point to drill.

    Use 0.8,mm drill bits as they won't make a hole in the chip too big.

    Depending on the drive revision, whether it's DG-16D4S or DG-16D5S

    you will need extra hardware as listed above.

    DG-16D4S:

    Sputnik Unlock Probe if MXIC chip
    CK3 Pro or a USB Pro
    and some brains.

    Alternatively as listed above, you can always buy an unlocked PCB which will probably be cheaper that messing up a Kamikazi or Sputnuk unlock. They are not easy tasks for beginners.

    If it's a DG-16D5S

    There is no way for simple here, you will need to RGH the console to retrieve the DVD key and then get a hold of an unlocked PCB.
    Some Trinity consoles DID have the DG-16D5S, so make sure you take a look at the sticker on the DVD drive and tell us exactly what it is.

    Very true but I've never got unlucky yet and always have a spare.

    Powering the drive with the xbox is dangerous and will most likely flag you for ban immediately, unless you are planning to play offline offline permanently of course.

    If it's a Slim drive there is no way he managed to flash it like that. Either he had already replaced the PCB with an unlocked one or unlocked that PCB.
