how easy is it to spoof another dvd drive to replace a drive that isnt reading disks too good?
also does the new drive have to be the same model as the one its replacing?

Its very easy and no it doesnt

Telling us what drive you have and what you want to swap with would help us help you better ;)
 
its a hitachi flashed with ixtreme and i want to put a sammy in.
 
Its a Hitachi what into a Samsung what?

Give full details and Ill give a full guide ;)
 
i have to lay my hands on a drive first oggy :)
i didnt want to buy one to find it was wrong. as soon as i get one i will post full details and hopefully get it sorted
 
For ease you could buy a Hitachi and swap the PCB's - it saves any messing around dumping keys and spoofing.

Although Hitachi lasers are the worst.

If you want the better drive get a sammy or BenQ (Id recommend BenQ as they will be newer usually)
 
The 360 Samsung and Hitachi drives use exactly the same laser. Check replacement lasers for them, it's the exact same part.
 
there a dodle to spoof matey, like you said get your drive and post your info theres plenty here to help you out
 
thanks for the info guys been looking on fleebay but new replacements from china are nearly £40 delivered.
anyone know where i can get a benq cheap? or is £40 cheap lol??
 
You will be hard pushed to find a BenQ on these shores for sub £45

£35 is usually the going rate for a drive.
 
Just buy a new laser, they are easy to fit.

edit.. or if your lucky you might get away with cleaning the one you have already

i had a look into that whats the glob of solder about that you have to remove prior to fitting about?
 
its for static electricity , just use solder brail to remove
 
yeh as said above, or you can cut the 2 tracks leading to and from it; carefully ;)
