Benq iXtreme 1.41 Rev 2 Non-Stealth Multispeed

A new firmware has been released for Xbox 360 Benq drives, however only for non-stealth users (not LIVE safe).

>> From gigabite on xboxhacker.net:
[QUOTE]
The Non-Stealth users of the Benq iXtreme firmware only had one choice speed wise when they chose the Non-Stealth firmware and that was 8x. This package gives users of Benq iXtreme Non-Stealth the choice to use whatever speed they prefer (2x, 5x, 8x, 12x).

This is NOT an update to iXtreme firmware for Benq users... this is merely an update to the Non-Stealth version which only provides different speed choices NOTHING else.

Credit goes to C4E and others, it was named Rev 2 to avoid confusion.
