Note:

* REMEMBER! Always check for Xbox Power cable SIDE UP, it should have a indicator.
* follow it based on color, this is NOT a PROFESIONAL ELETRONICS Diagram.
* ON OFF button, is for cutting power to Xbox drive, this is needed when modding.
* EJECT CLOSE button. make sure it is in CLOSE position (ground) every boot.
after boot into windows, u can eject and close the drive as u like.
* if u dont need eject or not planning to use xbox drive on pc for ripping,
xbox cable "3" should be connected directly to Orange.
* Probe is for extracting key from liteon drive
* remember ON OFF switch ALWAYS ON when turning on PC, EJECT CLOSE switch ALWAYS CLOSE.
* Please EJECT your drive once, after booting to windows, there is a bug exist.
that will freeze any program that tries to access the drive if it is close.
after ejecting once, it shud operate normally after that.
