Sounds like it should work, it has the right chipset. I would use the internal SATA connections though.

Hey, I just ordered that card this morning. I got my 360 yesterday afternoon and found out I had the Samsung drive (was expecting the Hitachi, but after much reading, seems like the Samsung is the better one?). Anyway, I wanted to know if it'd be a problem to set the jumpers to use the external port instead of the internal port?
