The mem unit as in the 4gb flash data built into the motherboard? I seriously doubt it, short of desoldering the flash module from the board and putting it on another slim I'm thinking he is SOL.

However I am not completely certain, but in theory the only way to interact with the hardware on the xbox is through the xbox itself. Therefore the box needs to be working somewhat for you to move the data.
