Hi there ! Can someone point me in the right direction please, I have a laptop with no sata port and I am trying to connect a OLD fat liteon drive to it with a usb to sata cable, trying is the word because it wont connect in jungle flasher.

I guess the problem is the usb to sata lead was a cheap thing I bought years ago, and I can not find the driver disk that came with it.

Before I buy a new one, is it possible someone can verify a make or model of one they have bought and it works with the 360 drives.

I have read that lots of them do not work off ebay and I do not want to waste money .

Thank you for any input and help please.

PS Trying my first flash as ixtreme 1.6 is not playing most games anymore fingers crossed I do not f---k it up.
 
hiya, gota agree with dave usbpro or usbpro v2 will do the job with no hassle,
 
The USB to sata would come in useful if you have a spare drive with the open CFW 0800 for rips, so keep it, you never know if you want to rip.....other than that then what has been suggested for flashing.
 
I think the usbpro v2 turns any drive into a ripping drive , then again i maybe wrong.(sure i read it somewhere)

Thought i had and you don`t even need the 0800 firmware.
think ive read that aswell dave, wasnt that the hidden special feature they announce when it was released ?

says here use any stock 360 drive and use it to rip originals
 
Oh... Do you not need the 0800 with one of those usb devices.... How's that work then bud...

Sent from my GT-I9100
 
The usb pro v2 is a combined unit between the ck3 devices as well as usb pro with the bonus of being able to rip using stock firmware from any 360 drive.

@Coolhand Luke, how many times do you intend to connect the drive to the laptop?

Thank you lads Xecuter usbpro v2 £45 a bit stiff but look's a piece of good kit.

As of March 2012, success was achieved in giving the X360USB PRO v2 a truly awesome feature. You are now able to connect any stock 360 DVD Drive to your computer using the X360USB PRO v2 via USB and it will instantly give it a drive letter in Windows! No custom firmware required, no 0800 firmware required, ANY stock 360 Drive can be used to read and give total support for XGD3 with the data throughput supporting the maximum possible bus speed using ANY stock 360 DVD Drive model (That’s all Phat and all Slim models – including the Hitachi 0500 !).

It has been suggested by another manufacturer that using USB3 gives faster disc access speeds, but obviously this is nonsense as USB2 supports up to 22x, and the 360 DVD Drive peaks at around 12x – so you will have the maximum possible speed that the system can handle available to you at all times.

This has never before been achieved and we feel it gives the X360USB PRO v2 the honour of truly being the most powerful tool ever created for the 360 Repair professional.

Whether you are a beginner or advanced user, this multi-use Mass Storage controller and Automated Power Adapter is an essential addition to any toolkit.
