To use the harddrive you'll first need to unlock it and then you can install it in a PC and format it.
The DVD drive would require alot of work to be usuable in a PC. You better off selling it and buying a PC DVD drive. Depending on which DVD drive it is, Thomson, Phillips or Samsung you could get between $50 and $100.

Surely there is a way to salvage to box,
Although i am sure there are plenty of people who would love the parts.

No the firmware of the XBox DVD drive is different from a PC DVD drive.
