a couple questions:
i have the ability to purchase any of the following hardware from other college students, but i wanna see if these parts will a)burn xbox games b) allow a sata connection between my hitatchi drive

i can buy any of these external dual layer burners
pioner dvr-x152
samsung tru direct
samsung superwriter master
hp dvd1040e
lg super multi dvd rewriter gsa-e601

i am biased towards the pioneer b/c i used a pioneer drive to backup ps2 games.
if none of these, can anybody suggest a burner that they are positive will work to backup 360 games (and preferable your preferred method)

will express usb to sata work? meaning, i can buy a thing that i stick into my laptop and then connect that to the sata cable to the hitatchi drive.

if i decide to use a pci card and desktop, will a dynex pci card allow me to flash my drive?

for burning games, does +r or -r work better?

any good online stores or advice is really appreciated.sorry if i asked stuff that hasbeen posted

well all of these questions can be answered in the stickied threads.

I've honestly never heard of any of those drives, but if they support dual layer burning and bitsetting, then there's a good chance they'll work.

If you like Pioneer i'd suggest the 112D, 111D, or the 115D. All of these have been verified to work best along with Lite Ons at burning games.

From what I've read, uSB to SATA will not work, you need a SATA card with vt6421 chipset.

Both the Pioneer drive and the sata cards can be found on Newegg.com
