The CK3, as its called, facilitates a power connection for an Xbox 360 drive using a standardMolex connector. It also has options to force an Hitachi drive intoMode B to make it visible in the Windows operating system.

Using add-on products for it, the CK3 helps to dump keys from all known drives (Feb 2010) used with the Xbox 360 console, meaning any drive can be replaced with any other drive as long as software is avilable to modify firmware files to make the drive appear original to the Xbox 360 unit.
