Re: My Xbox is dying
*UPDATE* (as if anyone really cared)
I found something that caught my eye when I was browsing ebay for lasers and such.
Fully modified samsung 616Ts with far greater speed than any of the standard xbox drives. Also, it can support all types of media.. CD-R, etc.
The xbox will recognize the drive as a samsung 605 (one of the stock drives for xboxes).
I can get this drive for like $55.
I can only find the actual stock 605s for a much higher price!
So, that makes my new decision pretty easy.
I just decided to say, "Screw the Thomson!"
I'm not going to pay even $20 to get that thing in working order again. I'll risk the extra $40 (~cost + shipping) for the superior drive.
I like knowing that I'll have a lot of extra speed.
Hopefully the drive will arrive by the end of next week.
