IDE cable a-b switch?

[niwi7]

Not sure if rite forum however---

I have modded xbox whcih i use to play mp3s and backup my games (dont give me legal crap i own the games i back up)

anyway...i have a 120 gig HDD installed and i wanna install another 1 externally


but in the xbox there is a single ide cable connecting the HDD and the cd rom

people have installed a switch for the ide cable so that you can switch between the two hard drives (the internal 1 and the external 1 i would wannna install)

anyway


my main question is--- where can i get a switch so that externally i can choose which HDD i wanna boot from w/o having to open up the xbox and plug and unplug things every time

thanks (if u understand lOL)

Something like this might work. I'm sure there's better priced models, but it's the general type of hardware you're looking for I think.
