Guide to put a PC SATA drive into a Xbox 360
Hello again im back with a simple mod that idk why i haven't seen around at all...except for vids but no guides.
first the xbox 360 already has a normal sata data cable port but the dvd drives power cable is a 12 pin in a cubic form which isnt good if we want to make it work on a pc drive (sata).
here is the txt based guide:
Sata POWER black wire goes to pin 7
Sata POWER red wire goes to pin 12
Sata POWER black goes to pin 5
Sata POWER yellow wire goes to pin 8
the solider or twist wires/pins 6 an 4 together so it thinks its a normal drive eliminating the flashing green light every time the xbox 360 is used.
Photo guide below:
