I think I sent you a reply to your PM about this but my PM is acting screwy.
So here goes
Here is a tutorial page as to how to crack the box open and it covers some chipping and other modifying as well.

As for the burning of games to the drive it is a feature built in to the new BIOS' "dashboard" (interface or GUI) which gives you the option to copy to hard drive.
As for the game play it is sweet loading from the HDD instead of DVD based for speed reasons and smoothness. It also allows you to remove the time and space consuming "cut scenes" from the game which makes most games take up a mere 650 Megs of space in total as opposed to the ungodly amount of space it would normally take up.
