The Xkey 360 for Samsung is an Aladdin style mod chip for the Xbox 360, Xkey 360 acts as a bios replacement for your Samsung MS25 & MS28 drives. Using the latest Xtreme firmware, the Xkey 360 will read both NME & Xtreme formatted security sectors. The Xkey 360 is a great solution for those looking for something cheaper then the NME v1.2 in Samsung drives, and also for people looking to use Xtreme & NME security sectors. When using the Xkey 360, you will not have any of the problems experienced with flashing the drive itself. Its a fool proof solution for the Samsung MS25 & MS28 drives. The Xkey 360 has a socketed SST chip which can be reflashed with the latest Xtreme bios using a flash ram programmer that supports the SST339SF040 chips. Upgrading these chips to the latest firmware is certainly a lot easier then reflashing the drive itself. Another handy feature of the Xkey 360 is the fact you do not have to extract the drives dvdkey. The Xkey 360 will extract and imbed your dvdkey into the Xtreme firmware for you.

There are a couple of other Samsung only chips on the market now, Xeno Lite, Mod 360 to name a few. Why we decided to stock the Xkey 360 over them was because the Xkey is unique in the fact that it is a bios replacement using the Xtreme firmware rather then being another NME clone like the Mod 360 and others. With the release of NME v1.2 & Xeno 360 v2, we dont see the point in stocking older NME clones. When the NME 1.2 & Xeno 360 v2 will do all models, with new features and are much more stable then previous versions of the NME based chips.
