2. Orig is fine as you just need the key.
3. USBPRO1 and some way to power the drive (you could use the 360, but that could flag you for a ban, no one knows for certain).
4. CK3 will allow you to power your drive using a Molex connection from your PC to the CK3 to the drive. You do not need a probe for the drive that you have.

Yes you could use the 360 as a power source.

this has been confirmed as true by thespecialist a long long time ago
booting with no dvd drive attached logs a flag in your secdata.bin.
bad idea.

If you don't care about the possible ban, then yes use the 360 to power your drive. As Gazc0igne says, doing so is flagged within the xbox, but what we do not know for sure is whether or not Microsoft is using that as a ban flag for 100% sure....
