Hard Drive Act As Dvd-rom
« on: December 16, 2007, 05:02:00 PM »

Hi,

I have been reading around and doing some research on how to do this.
I am a pretty good coder (assembly, c, etc) and I have a degree in Computer Science.
Im a total noob when it comes to low level device programming.

I was looking at this and it seams like the perfect device for setting yourself up with a game jukebox

The idea is to get a USB hub, USB-Sata adapters, and connect it up to the 360 motherboard and a Hard drive.
The device is completely open, comes with example software and an developement environment.
It also has an LCD screen and buttons so you can choose your game.

If i could figure out how to emulate a sata dvd-drive (very hard i know) would this work?

Thanks
