WTB: XBox DVD drive
« on: December 27, 2006, 04:12:32 pm »
My drive is toast.  Does anyone have a spare one they want to sell/trade.  I have a few arcade PCBs I could trade or cash is always a possibility.  I would also consider a complete xbox if the price is really good.

Let me know,
John

I got an original xbox console in perfect condition.  All original never modded,opened, etc.   Yours for $90.00 shipped.  Paypal verified.  If concerned with my number of posts, I could put it on eBay for you.

Thanks...I'll see if I can get a DVD only first, then I may resort to a full Xbox.  $90 is a good deal so if someone else offers to buy it, feel free to offer it up.

That solution won't read Xbox games, though, only backups and movies.  That's why they say you need a modded xbox.

There are a few PC drives that you can update the firmware on which will then read originals.  If you're interested in that go to xbox-scene.com and do a search on the forums and or the tutorials section.

If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

I have a Phillips Xbox DVD drive out in my parts closet.

It is not marked and I cannot even guarantee it is working (however I kept it for some reason so it may work).

Yours for $20 shipped if you want to risk it.

Well, he has first dibs but after that you can have it.

Xbox DVD drives are notoriously picky and its been out in my parts closet for a while so it may or may not work....

Let me know whoever wants it.

Ok, PM sent to ChadTower re: phillips DVD.

John, If you decide to buy that Xbox, I am sure you can part it out for the remainder of the money.

I would be interested in the mobo, and power supply for sure..

I want one.  Cheap though.  Mine works with originals but will not boot back-up CDRs.

Xbox sold to NinjaEpisode! Sorry about selling this on your thread, JRIPLEY.  I just wanted anyone who saw the offer, to know that it was sold.   Thanks
