Got the VIA SATA card in today, flashed n the first try. Everything works!
Big thanks to sadalius couldn't have done it without you!
One last question, I just bought MX vs ATV Untamed and it asks for an update. Will this mess anything up if I do it?
Thanks again!

Re: Replace hitachi 59 with TS-H943A
Well now I'm having trouble with the 10 second trick. I think that maybe the first flash was easy because it was a ms25. Now with the hacked firmware being ms28 I might have to buy the VIA SATA PCI card. I'm going to keep trying different times, and hopefully flash this new f/w.

Re: Replace hitachi 59 with TS-H943A
Wait a sec, I just remembered something. I flashed my drive in between with OPA 2.3 firmware before I did the ix1.4. I noticed after this flash that my drive was now recognized as a 0046 in windows. Seems weird but everything still worked. So maybe on this flash it changed the drive key along with t...

Re: Replace hitachi 59 with TS-H943A
1.) The hitachi 59 came out of this xbox
2.) Yes
3.) No, the hitachi drive is bricked because of a bad flash. It happened when I tried to upgrade the firmware to ix1.4. The previous flash (gary OPA) was good, I just wanted to upgrade. The orig key came from that backup firmware.

Re: Replace hitachi 59 with TS-H943A
Well I successfully flashed the drive with the firmware you gave me. Now any 360 game gives me a "put this disc in an xbox 360 error". It plays dvd movies fine, just not 360 games. It does this with original and backup discs. I'm going to read around and see if I can figure this out.

Re: Replace hitachi 59 with TS-H943A
Also I loaded up the USB HDD and was just going to see if my sata controller would work. I have the XTREME Pri Master, But I also have XTREME Pri Slave
1. XTREME Pri Master
2. XTREME Pri Slave
I guess I just use (1) but just wanted to check before I mess anything up.

Re: Replace hitachi 59 with TS-H943A
Thanks for the fw, but when I try and open it in iPrep it says "no valid firmware loaded". I can open the original ixtreme 1.4 samsung firmware with no problems. I made my jump drive with the ixtreme 1.4 original, can I just replace the Sam-CFW.BIN in CFW folder with the one that you sent ...
