I saw a forum back a little bit that showed using a connector kit but I am wondering is there anyway to directly wire a xbox 360 dvd rom into your computer with a 4 pin molex or some comon power connector?

i am sure there are ways, maybe you can somehow make a custom power adapter with the supplied wire to power the drive inside the xbox, like find out which wires do what and make an adapter accordingly. but then again you have to make a eject button as well.

Yes, you can make your own. But with gathering the neccessary parts and soldering it together, you'd be better off just picking up one of the older Connectivity Kits. They're cheap and there's no messing around.
