i was just curious if the xbox 360 can be modded to play backup dvd-r's?

It can, but AFAIK not with a physical mod chip.

You have to open up your 360 and use a sata cable or sumfin' and flash the DVD player the 360 has in it with one of the hacked firmwares.

Here's a link to how to do it, I don't know if it's still up-to-date, but have a look anyway to get an idea:

Xbox-Scene News: Xbox360 DVD Firmware Hacked - Video

Beware though, if you don't stay on your toes and have your firmware always up-to-date, there's a chance the Microsoft will ban your XBL account.

Also, if you don't want to keep opening your 360 up to flash your firmware drive, you can always buy this:

Blaster 360 Xbox 360 Blaster360

There's also many other add-ons besides the blaster 360:

Hope I was of some assistance.

Man that was great info. thanks a bunch. seems like it's just better to hit up the blaster 360 anyway right. can u still do the mod like the original xbox was with the harddrive and just copy games to the harddrive?

no you cant run games from he hdd unfortnately but give it time and a proper modchip will be out for the 360 but at the moment all you can do is run back up copies
