Great news for the people (like me) who have applemacs with PPC processors. We could hopefully use this through Virtual PC.

Just need the ability to burn custom layerbreak dvds

Excellent work TeamXecuter! I can't wait to get my hands on one of these! If all that is claimed is true, this is truly an awesome tool! I just gave up on a compatible PCI SATA solutions for my Hitachi. This gives me a lot of hope!

Sounds like a simple solution that will give more people confidence in flashing their drives.

2 thumbs up Team X.

I'd be careful, I didn't think Virtual PC worked with a USB device if Mac OS X didn't recognize it first.

There isn't any OS X burning software that does custom layer breaks? Which PC programs do this, Nero?

The reason I couldnt do it in macos already is cos you had to use a sata connection and do it in msdos or windows, virtualpc only emulates a cd drive but usb devices work as normal.

PC program that does the custom layerbreak is clonecd (so ive heard).

This looks like a gr8 piece of kit.

Would that mean you would wont have to put it in mode-b mode.

Also where can you buy that item from when it becomes on sale?

Thanks

do you have to use the connectivity kit to power the dvd drive or can you just keep the power plugged into the 360 and have the sata to usb connected to your computer and dvd drive?
