If you have any more of those Zetr0 I would be interested. I installed a bigger HDD in a friends xbox and his dvdrom wasn't ejecting properly when he gave it to me and then it died shortly after I gave it back.

I have a black DVD-rom handy as well. Not sure what the Xboxes use but this is just a bog standard dvd rom, ide with molex power.

Alas although this WILL work on an XBOX, it wont read XBox games nor will it eject by using the XBOX itself. |

Xboxes use custom DVD-ROM. PC ones will not read game discs.
Rare exception of some Samsung drives from 2002 which can be re-flashed with x-box drive firmware. |

@Alexh
good point, i was thinking this from a POST flash / chip-modded angle, @Smiley basically, unless you have a chipped / modded XBox your stuck to using the basic custom dvd drive. |
