Found some saves and mp3s on it and it's still working, just with that little jumper on. anybody with similar situation? PS sorry for my english but i'm from Poland

The MS/SL/CS pins are only used on PATA ide devices because they have more then 1 device per line, SATA on the other hand is identified by connection (only one device connects per line) there must be something else wrong with the xbox360 and you just struck it lucky bigtime
