    I love your videos so much I'm just going to say awesome video but not watch it. I modded my N64 with RGB Advance. It went great, did my PS2 Slim with Retro GEM, systems fan works way too hard now, now we got this and it's not even the first HDMI mod for Xbox. Will all due respect it's made me realize the risk with these mods is once it's installed you better make sure you go right through that whole console and make sure it doesn't need any other maintenance. Disc Drive, Hard Drive, Caps leaking...I picked up an Xbox at a Salvation Army for 4.99 and it works better than the one I bought for 40 at a Toy Vault. The video signal on the Toy Vault one has wavy lines running through the picture. It's not there when I used my setup on the SA Xbox. I'd imagine maybe this mod would fix my issue? The video port might be bad. Or maybe it's worse and it's the graphics card.

      ​@@mbe102 TRIM on an SSD requires that either the SSD's internal garbage collection systems support the file system, which the XBOX file system isn't supported on SSD internal garbage collection mechanisms, and you need an OS that supports TRIM and can read and write to the file system being used on the SSD.
      There is no point in using an SSD in these older consoles, you aren't getting any speed advantages or anything of that sort. Just use a 2.5" SATA drive connected up via an IDE controller adapter. You will max out the IDE interface well before the HDD becomes the bottleneck. Modern SATA drives are quite fast and have large caches.

      It also requires the interface to the system be SATA, not IDE. And just because the drive is SATA and supports the feature, doesn't mean it can use the feature without support and calls via AHCI to the drive from the OS.
      XBOX = IDE, not AHCI SATA + No TRIM support.
      It wasn't a thing in 2000 so sure enough it's not a thing on the Xbox. Not to mention you have to be using a file system that is supported, the Xbox File system, again, is not a supported file system.
