sata card is an add on to your pc via a pci slot sort of like a sound card or modem,what that gives u is a sata port so u can connect ur 360 drive to your pc.So the answer is yes all u need to do is buy a pci to sata card and install it . Or use ur on board sata port depending on ur 360 drive some u have to use a via 6421 sata card such as the one i described.

Hi,
I would strongly suggest reading into how to do it more before buying the components and attempting the flash, as you risk bricking your drive.
If you are going to use your 360 to power the drive, then all you will need is the SATA PCI Card, and a SATA cable to connect from the drive to the PC.
The Samsung drive is the easiest to flash, but make sure you read through a few tutorials before actually going ahed with it :).

Hey I have a question I'm new to this whole flashing thing but i bought a used 360 that has already been flashed with what I don't know it's a lite on 74850C it doesn't play wave 4 games. my question is if I want to update the fw to 1.61 would I be able just to use the sata cable method by just pluging the drive to the pc using the 360 power and update it with jungle flasher. the tut is a little confusing to me any help would be great
