Template:Xbox 360 NAND Flashers

There are a few different tools for reading your NAND chip: xFlasher 360, Nand-X, JR Programmer, Matrix USB NAND Flasher, PicoFlasher, various SD card tools, or a LPT cable. Consider the pros and cons below and choose the method that’s right for you. An LPT cable is not recommended as it's extremely slow, requires more work than other options, and cannot be used to program glitch chips.

A guide on how to dump and write to a standard NAND can be found here.

Device	Pros	Cons
xFlasher 360	Reads NAND fast in 40 seconds to 4 minutes Can also program glitch chips One of four options for 4GB NANDs Actively supported USB-C	Most expensive flasher Not sold on common marketplaces like Amazon or AliExpress Can't be used for flashing Sonus Sounds
PicoFlasher	Reads NAND fast in 1-8 minutes One of four options for 4GB NANDs One of the two options for Sonus flashing Super cheap Easy to find Can flash glitch chips with this J-Runner Fork	Wire routing is more sensitive compared to other NAND flashers Tends to have spotty reliability on Xbox 360 motherboards due to their SPI and eMMC logic being up to 5v, whereas the Pico uses 3.3v.
JR Programmer	Reads NAND in 3-10 minutes Can also program glitch chips One of the two options for Sonus flashing Cheap Easy to find	More expensive and less common than PicoFlasher
Nand-X	Reads NAND in 2-8 minutes Can also program RGH glitch chips	More expensive than most NAND flashers Does not support 4GB NANDs Can't be used for flashing Sonus Sounds
Matrix USB NAND Flasher	Reads NAND in 7-26 minutes Super cheap	Can’t be used for programming glitch chips unless you modify it Does not support 4GB NANDs Requires unsigned drivers Can't be used for flashing Sonus Sounds
LPT Cable	Cheap	Requires PC with a native parallel port and more equipment More difficult Does not support 4GB NANDs Can’t be used for programming glitch chips Can't be used for Sonus flashing Takes 30-150 minutes to read NANDs
