on the older hit driver you have to do a restore.then you can flash to a newer firmware.
if you look iver this guide it goes into it.

I've never used the slax cd to get it into mode b so I can't comment on it, but the connectivity kit comes with a mode b switch on it that really simplifies the process. You would no longer have to mess with the slax cd. I use one with my hit and I personally think that the hit is the easiest drive to flash.

You will need some way to power this kit up. I use on old power supply from a computer, but I have used the power from an xbox1 before. You can't power it up from your flashing computer because you have to be able to reboot your computer without turning off the drive you are flashing.

Cofree is using a usb to sata adapter (the blue item in the video) in this one, but you can just use you sata card.

thanks jman31 will this do the job in uk http://www.kanection.co.uk/product.php/876/139/x360-usb

[Jman 31]

Yes that is actually the best way to do it imo. The usb360 is not necessary if you have a sata port, but that's what I use and it really simplifies the process.

you will still need some way to power the connectivity kit though. constant power supply of some sort.

as jman 31 says.. you need a power supply.
I built one from a external hard drive caddy.. using the built in mini power supply

but you can use something like this : http://www.amazon.co.uk/SATA-3-5-2-5-CA ... 10&sr=1-12
