if your computer doesnt have them then you will need to buy a sata card. the floating ground is just an electrical thing. connect the xbox and the computer with a ground wire. if you want a picture of the setup and picture or how to ground the xbox download the hacking the xbox 360 for dummies pfd. it has great picture and will help you. and if you know the model of your dvd drive you can look it up on google to see if it supports dl dvd

depending on which drive you have there are also devices you can buy to flash the drive with USB.

to find out if you have sata you need to open your computer. if you do have them since you have a via chipset you should be set.

any electronincs store like Best Buy or Curcuit City should have them, just do some research and make sure you get the correct kind you need for flashing. Although you will pay a bit more then if you bought it at an online store.

i think your best bet is to go find some small computer tech store they should have them, i don't think best buy will have something like that. your cheapest bet is ebay. only like 12-15 bucks. and you need a via 6421L or A does not matter thay both work, with all versions of 360 drives.
