First check device manager in System to check that the drive really isnt showing, right click and select check for new devices or whatever. If still no joy then try the following...

Use the SLAX method (make sure its the custom SLAx CD not the normal one) when you get to boot from CD hit eject and reload the disc.

Try different combos of eject and resets untill it boots. once slax has FULLY loaded reset and boot to windows, keep trying too it doesnt show up every time

Worked for me

hey bro, just wondering, everytime i boot the 360 with the slax cd it always freezes at startup no matter what, so i plugged the sata in after the first screen and the slax cd loaded it got to boot and all that shit, as soon as i restarted the light started blinking and the tray opened. now windows still doesn't recognize it the tray is stuck open with the light flashing no matter if i turn the console on or off, any ideas...fuck i am so screwed this is my buddies box too, why can't he just have a sammy

Ok. Sounds like it's stuck in modeB. Try forcing the tray shut, booting windows with the 360 on. If the middle light is blinking green fast, it's in modeb so windows should give it a drive letter. You don't need to worry, as long as you haven't attempted to flash it, you haven't bricked anything yet.
I used a SIL3112a PCI Sata card and slax CD booted and put into modeB with no trouble. Then I used Birdy's 2.2 Fixed flasher with the mediapatch on a 59Dj and had no problems.

i am gonna look into that card i just don't know why, i have read around that the ich5 sata is compatible with hitachi 47d. But i disconnected the dvd drive entirely and when i power on the system the little green light still blinks fast. Does this mean i screwed the system up??
