Was dropping off a load of garage junk at the local convenience center (a mini-dump) and in the pile of electronics was an Xbox with 2 controllers and cables. I snagged it and took it home... One controller was broken (literally) the other was a working original FAT controller. Plugged it all up and inside the CD tray is Halo! The drive is busted - whines like CRAZY but I can softmod it and put XBMC on there and use it to stream music and videos from my NAS server.

SWEET!
 
If it smells like poo, I say throw it back.
 
I used to mod systems and repair drives, I've still got over a half dozen Samsung SDG-605B's, F's and Thomson drives sitting here with new lasers installed.

If you need a new drive, I'll let one go fairly cheap, even cheaper if you send me your old drive.

P.S. I would suggest you TSOP flash if earlier than a 1.6, softmods suck in comparison.
