There's no need to replace a working drive. So yes a Benq can be flashed without any hard modding.

The BenQ drive is the easiest to flash imo.

To be sure what you have, check this site: http://www.llamma.com/xbox360/Xbox_360_DVD_Drive_Comparison.htm

I've never used the blaster 360 so i can't comment on that.

Whenever there is a new hacked firmware yes you will have to open your case again unless you want something like this http://www.xbox-modchips.com/blaster.htm it works but most people just open the case again seeing how updates dont come out as often as they used to. As for the sata card most via chip work very well but id go with this one http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?Item=N82E16816132009 but thats just me =)

LOL good one man!!

You know I heard too, while on the subject, that Wabashman, Steimy, and Bhetrick are the same person, did you hear that too? It's like Clark Kent and Superman, you never see them post at the same time.

Creaky, the board is about interacting with our fellow posters, it makes it fun. This board would die if it was all tech talk.

Interacting is great, however only if it's in keeping with the posts, ie interacting does not mean pointless off-topic posting nor does it mean this site is a giant chatroom for bored kids. My previous comment stands ie
