    GameCube drive swap?

    Is it possible to take a XenoGC modded drive from a cosmetically manky UK GC, and swap it straight into a minty Japanese Tales of Phantasia GC?

    Is there going to be any weird issues as it’s a PAL drive going into an NTSC system, even though it’s now region-free? And are there different drive revisions; is it a direct swap?

    Thanks

    I put a modded PAL drive into my NTSC-US machine.

      And I assume everything was fine... that’s great to know.

      So if I’ve got a XenoGC in there, do I need a disc in the with something like Swiss on it, or can I boot directly from memory card/SD card? Any help or guides would be useful.

        It's booting original US discs fine Sorry I can't be more helpful with the other questions.

          The drives are region free, it’s the motherboard on the machine that tells it to region block. I have personally used pal GameCube drives as donors to repair Japanese gamecubes.
