Can you still use a VIA6421 SATA card to flash the drive? The tutorials that i have seen are shown using the X360USBPRO.
LITEON DG-16D2S Flashing Lite-On
- Thread starter codexavellum
- Start date
should be able to, just a lot easier (and more compatible) with the X360USBPRO.
the method is almost the same though

Ha. You brought back some memories. Shat would freeze on me 50% of the time then I had to finish in dos flash. I love my USBPRO's.
i never used to have problems flashing phat drives with my via card, apart from hitachi's which i used to use my onboard sata.
OP just make sure you got your via drivers uninstalled

And make sure you are not drawing power for the drive from the same cable as your main HD if using a desktop to flash.
As the 360 drive draws power to write the new firmware, it can freeze the pc because it accesses the hd at the same time.
And yes it has happened to me. Until i switch to a power connector on a different cable in my old desktop. Then the freezing stopped.

no , if you read the tutorials you would know this ... Liteon DG-16D2S 02510C (NEW VERSION) - Step-By-Step Guide (CK3 Probe 3 for DVD Key)
if you don't already have your key, you'll need to use a probe 3 to get it..

I am going to be using a Probe 3. I am just asking if I am going to need to have the tray open or whatever when flashing. I have some vids with it open and some with it not.
no need for tray open, it's not mentioned anywhere in the tutorial so it's not required 
Thank you, just being cautiousno need for tray open, it's not mentioned anywhere in the tutorial so it's not required
