Hey folks. I'm thinking about getting a 360, and the very first thing I'd do is flash it, but I figured before I did any of that I'd make sure I had everything I needed to do so, and it seems like some of the information out there is pretty dated.
1. Is there a single best SATA card to use for flashing, regardless of the 360 DVD brand?
2. Are there any DVD burners that are better for this than others, or does burn quality generally come down to the quality of the media?
Is there anything I'm forgetting before I set out doing all this? I figured I would get the SATA card, burner, and DVDs first, then get the console. I thought I'd get a used/refurb console since the store will give me a cheap warranty for when it inevitably bursts into flame and dies, and I could probably stretch that out for years. I'm hesitant to get one new since what I just described isn't dependant on the warranty sticker and would ultimately cost less than the $100 out-of-warranty repairs through MS. Does this seem like a good plan?

When you download Jungle Flasher when you first run it click guide and it will open the tutorial.
You will need either the correct VIA SATA card or a connectivity kit.

there is always the slight chance you could be banned from xbox live and you do void your warranty other than that NO plays the same and can play backups. Make sure your iso's are stealth and verified using ABGX and your chances of being banned are reduced but never a guarantee.
