The advantages are better security features and it is recommended to upgrade. No one knows exactly what Microsoft looks for when it comes to banning so yes, you can get banned from Xbox Live. Thats a chance that anyone who mods their console takes the moment they pull the warranty sticker off of it.

I think for the most part, a lot of us has done the upgrade, except for those with hitachi drives that is.

I have a few more questions:-

So I assume you have done put 1.5 on your xbox 360 drive too and you recommend me to do it too?

Any reported problems/glitches on the 1.5 iXtreme Firmware?

Do I flash the NEW firmware, the sameway as I put the old hacked firmware?

Thanks

Yes. It is recommended to upgrade. No known issues with the 1.5 firmware. It's recommended to use iprep 6.2 or the newest one to flash it with. But yeah, it's pretty much the same procedure.
