I have a Bad Hitachi 47 -- needs a laser. (open tray)

Was wondering -- I may just get the laser (you can get one from Amazon for $1.50!!), but what is the best drive out there if I were to replace it completely -- and maybe the best deals?

I've had luck with Liteon, but wondering what everyone else thinks.

Lite-On 74850, Ben-Q 64930, Hitachi 47DJ, Samsung MS28.

From what I understand you cant spoof drives any more with the new dash. The new dash does a check to make sure it is the same model xbox came with. So I would either get a laser, or just get another shitachi.

What error do you get if you have the new dash? You mean Kinect? Bacause if you're talking about firmware; I've spoofed with LT+ without a hitch. Reading originals and back ups.

I actually like the liteon better. Seems more BenQ drives have belt issues than Lite-on's. Both are good though.

This is usually because morons don't do full dumps like in 99% of the liteon theads on this site. Full dump, dumps the laser calibration. dummy dumps don't.
