Important notices: XBOX™, XBOX360™, trademarks are the property of Microsoft Corporation. There are many web pages, and videos on the internet that teach you how to open up or disassemble the Xbox 360. You can use them for further reference. This webpage shows you how to extract your components within the Xbox 360 and install them in the XB01 chassis. Please use this guide at your own risk, the warranty of the Xbox 360 is voided if it has been modified of tampered with, so following this tutorial you are accepting that your Xbox 360 warranty will no longer be valid. The PC-XB01’s warranty only covers the Lian Li chassis itself, neither the components nor structure of the Xbox 360 within.1. Remove all the cables, and the HDD module off the Xbox 360 console. Place the Xbox 360 on a flat surface before disassembling. You will need some special tools to help you to open the Xbox 360. Those tools are Torx 6, Torx 8, Torx 10, and a flat screw driver. |

3. Starting with the bottom vent plate, there are six tabs that hold it into place, and they are accessible from the sides through the vent holes. Gently pull up and simultaneously release the clips by pushing in with a tool that can fit through the holes (shown in image, with a Torx 6 ). Start at the front of the case and work your way back alternating sides so each pair of tabs are released. For the top vent plate, use a flat screw driver to release the front two tabs by placing the flat screw driver through the holes into the case, and place between the tab and internal wall of the bottom and top cover to release the two tabs. There is a tab which is behind the Xbox 360 feet. You will need to remove the feet to release the tab which holds the top vent plate. |

4. After the top and bottom vent plates are removed, lay the Xbox 360 upside down on a table top (Rubber feet facing upwards). There are seven notches at the rear panel of the Xbox 360. Using the flat screwdriver or something flat to push the catch a bit into the Xbox 360 to release the clips ( you should hear crisp clicks when the clips releases), work from the power connector socket side first, and do the same thing to the other side of the catches. (There are some tips on the internet to shows how to open the Xbox 360 without marking it). |
