Reply with quote
 
Since my DVD drive is dying (from a previous post), I have one option right? To get a new DVD drive. They sell em ebay which is ok (all in my price range), but they are all either just plain stock plug-n-plays or refurbished ones. Can I get a regular PC DVD/R/W drive from anywhere (like best buy or something)? If so, do games load faster using a faster PC DVD drive? How hard is it to mod a PC DVD drive for the XBOX?
please help! Exclamation
Which PC DVD drive would you guys recommend based on compatibility with DVD/r/w/cd/r/w media and speed (I'm much more concerned with speed).
