SATA
Xbox 360 Black ODD Type 1 Cable
Commonly used in consoles with Xenon & Zephyr motherboards, this connected the DVD drive to the motherboard and had a small yellow dot on the side that connects to the motherboard.
Xbox 360 Black ODD Type 2 Cable
Commonly used in consoles with late Zephyr and newer motherboards, this connected the DVD drive to the motherboard and had a small piece of yellow tape on the side that connects to the motherboard. There are no functionality differences between this and a Type 1 cable other than how the end that goes to the console was identified.
Xbox 360 S Red ODD Cable
Commonly used in consoles with trinity motherboards, this connected the DVD drive to the motherboard.
Xbox 360 S Dark Blue ODD Cable
Commonly used in consoles with corona and newer S and E systems, this connected the DVD drive to the motherboard.
Prototypes
The following SATA cables were used on different Xbox 360 console variations.
Xbox 360 S Light Blue ODD Cable
Used on early trinity prototypes, this SATA cable differed in in terms of the color and in the cable ends. The straight-through side plugged into the motherboard and the 90 degree inverted side plugged into the DVD drive. Interestingly enough, the port on final trinity motherboards is referred to as "ODD_Blue" even though the final cable is red.
