Yeah you could, but why would you? Thomson drives are generally the worst of the drives in the xbox. I would suggest a Samsung or a LG drive.

I agree w/ Quad! Unless your laser is going out in your philips drive, or it is having problems reading backup games, I would not switch drives, especially to a thomson. Now I'm not saying their bad, but they are probably the worst drives made for the Xbox, w/ the philips coming in a close second.

If you want to customize or buy a pre-made custom drive that will play all of your media flawlessly, check out Quads sticky here on the Samsung/LG drives.
