    @jiub @usernameswift You can technically use a different model drive and insert your drive key, but that sets off AP (anti-piracy) flags that can get you banned from Xbox Live. The console keeps track of the model of the drive shipped with the system, so it knows when you've replaced a Lite-On with Hitachi, or vice-versa.

        @usernameswift @jiub AFAIK you can use any of the phat 360 DVD drives with 0800 firmware to rip game discs and use as general CD/DVD drive. If you don't need to rip game discs, I'd use a modern ASUS or LG drive instead as they tend to be good dumping drives (they work great with various tools used by the Redump project, and so on)

            @usernameswift I fucked up the USB port on mine trying to solder a cable directly to the pads rather than using the Mini USB port...

            ...Any chance you'd consider selling me yours? 🥺

                            @usernameswift Because USB Mini fucking sucks, and the port had worn to the point it wouldn't keep a reliable connection if the cable got bumped during a disc dump. Pulled pads, so I either have to do trace repair or buy a new one.

                            Thank you anyway for humouring my query! ❤

                                      @usernameswift @jiub Yeah, still pretty easy to do these days from my understanding. Wonder if this site still works - wiiu.hacks.guide

                                      Just be sure you take two backups of your eMMC. Those fuckers like to die.

                                        @usernameswift @jiub You might also be able to rip with 360 Slim drives, but you need the drive key entered in Xbox Backup Creator, IIRC. 0800-flashed drives for the most part act like a regular DVD/CD drive otherwise.
