    well thats your problem.
    Put the proper drive thats supposed to be in there back in.
    Flash it to stock
    > update
    >flash it back to CFW

    This didn't work for me when I tried this on a xbox I fixed with the same error, but I would recommend doing it first, the fix that worked for me was putting an hitachi drive into it, updating and then sticking the samsung back in again.

    Good to know I have to fix an xbox doing the exact same thing tommorow.
    Will do that if flashing back to stock dosent work.

    Worked for me anyway, when I restored to stock it would start the update but near the finish the screen would flicker and E66 error popped up every time, I used an old stock hitachi and worked straight off. No need to spoof the hitachi as anything just put it straight in
