Title: Ide Kreon Drive Not Working Anymore?
Post by: Esjay on May 22, 2010, 07:42:00 PM
Around November, I traded someone for a Kreon SH-D162C and it worked initially, but after putting it in storage for a while, it wont recognize 360 games, but the drive is recognized by windows. I have even tried reflashing the Kreon firmware, and it didnt work. Any suggestions/tips?

Here is a pic of what XBC shows me.

is it set as the master drive or a slave?

i believe these drives work better being a master.

I have it as Master, and it's the only dvd drive connected. I should find the external power supply for it and see if thats it, because the drive isn't spinning up apparently.

I'll probably just buy a sata Kreon drive, since IDE is getting outdated.

I would invest in a samsung xbox 360 drive and a connectivity kit if you are planning to make backups.  The kreon drives don't make live safe backups.  But if don't plan to go online a kreon would work fine.


I dont plan on using it on a live console.
