OK I have read dozens of tutorials now and just hoped I could get a quick response. I am just about to flash my 360, I've bought a VIA PCI SATA CARD - WITH VIA 6421A CHIPSET so I'm going to open up my PC to see if I have any SATA ports (its kinda old). If I do have a SATA port does that mean I can connect straight from my computer to my 360 drive with just the SATA cable, and if I don't have any SATA ports I connect the PCI SATA card up with the cable and connect to the 360?


So in short lol, can I connect my computer and 360 drive with just a SATA cable if I have the available port?

There are some known compatability issues. If you're not sure what chipset your mobo sata ports run on, then I'd go ahead and put the VIA card in and run your flash off of it.
