I bought a 5 broken 360's for $100. Was an incredible deal so i had to take it. Repairing them all. Then in the next week or so is when i will start selling them.

Eclipse,

If you have a second, could you check out this link? It turns out that I have a lite-on dvd drive, and I need to purchase more parts. Would this work? In a previous post, you said that this would work? Are these 2 the same, but $15 bucks cheaper? If I can save some money, it'd be helpful. Unemployment sucks.

Thanks,

Yes, they will both work with flashing your lite-on. You can buy either one of them.

 

[cpugenius]

thanks. the cheaper one it is!

i bought the first one on ebay for $20 and it works great.

If I just have the pcb board is that okay? since the drive needs to be half opened and I have nothing to connect it to.. can I still dump the key from it?

 

[EclipseModz]

You should still be able to.
