exactly, at least for the only 2 flash dump i've, and it should be for all xbox360 drive with MC08 fw revision

Its also possible there is another flash command to flash the unique parts. Or maybe it can't be read/write these areas when the chip is on the drive's board and some addresses maybe be hardware blocked/secured? I guess when we find a command to read the flash will we see how much it can read.
Yes, probably there are cdb commands to write unique data areas and cdb command to dump memory space (ram and flash), but there could be also a bad situation where such cdb does not exist. This case there should be 99% probably a cdb command to upload and execute custom code (trojan horse style).
I neesdsome time to take a look.
