Softmod is shit.. it's guranteed to throw on some bad sector's on your HDD.
plus you cant swap out the Hard drive at that point.

I used the 007 softmod hack, i fucked it up hardcore, getting the xbmc. i started getting sector issues, broke my hdd, had to pay a friend for another one.
I picked up an xecuter chip (not the same one listed above), and a 250 gig hd
I still use it, games, emu's, movies, porno, xbmc is in and get the component cable, watching mario 64 on my friends 42" 1080P TV looks damn good (well aware that its not HD)
Eventually, you're going to want the modchip, it's just so reliable.
