Maxconsole.net managed to get a hold of the new Xbox 360 Connectivity from Team Xecuter, and they ran it through a few tests. There are two items included in the kit: a hard drive adapter, and an optical disc drive adapter. The hard drive adapter is a fairly standard connectivity kit for the Xbox 360 hard drive, except that it allows both USB and SATA connectivity with the same cable. The connector also features an LED to let you know its operating, but it is hardly the clean solution that the Datel kit is. However, the second part of the set is more interesting; it is an optical drive adapter that allows the user to remove the DVD-ROM drive from the Xbox 360 and use standard PC power to connect it to the host computer, so that the Xbox 360 doesn’t have to be near the PC and powered on to work with the DVD drive. The connector has a toggle switch to allow selecting either normal or debug mode (for using the drive without any add-on software) and has a SATA connector to allow firmware manipulation, so that gamers can have access to their legitimate Xbox 360 software backups. Maxconsole gives the kit a favorable review, only dinging the optical drive adapter for not supporting USB at this time, and the complexity of the firmware patching process, which is more of a software issue than anything else. The kit retails for $29.95, and is available now.
