How to tell what drive you have
Remove your 360 faceplate, you should now see something similar to this.
Look at hole#3, you should see one of these three things:
Circuit board and red wire= Samsung
Black plastic divot = Hitachi
White wires and empty space = Benq THIS IS THE DRIVE THIS TUT IS FOR

8.The tools to open your 360!!!
Tutorial
Step 1:
Make your USB boot disk using the HP boot program and the windows 98 files
You can also make a boot disk with a floppy disc, but it isn’t as reliable, so I wont go into it
Copy the contents from the DosFlash 16 folder into your root directory of the flash drive
Before you go any further, write down the port number for the first port of your Sata card, it will be the first port number in your device manager for it.
Step 2:
Open your 360 using any available guides, or contact me and I will walk you through it if you want personalized help
