I believe the drive should work as long as key is matched.

If you don't know how to, or don't want to dump/flash the drives, you can simply swap the PCB boards of the drives.

I am fairly new to this so nobody chop my head off if I am wrong, but my common sense tells me that it you "back-up" games that are REGION FREE it shouldn't matter. Correct me if I am wrong.

LOL,yes it matters. You cannot simply throw a drive into a 360. It will be a DVD player.

But if you get the key and everything correct it doesn't matter if the drives are from Hong Kong.

Xbox 360: Slim untouched with a faked 320 GB harddrive for XBL, phat with LT 3.0, played Halo early, so going on live would be an instand ban, also with a faked 320 GB harddrive
PS3: Untouched 160 GB Slim, 60 GB Fat with latest Rogero and 160 GB internal harddrive.
PSVita: hardly ever play it
GameCube: Black with a Viper chip installed. With gameboy player. Trying to get a Wavebird controller.
