Just pull the faceplate off and look in the little hole in bottom right hand corner of dvd. Will be two wires. white are BENQ yellow are lite-on black and red is a sammy and a plastic cover would be hitachi. you can also use the shape of the Tray. try this http://www.llamma.com/xbox360/Xbox_360_DVD_Drive_Comparison.htm

thanks for trying, ive been emailing 360 Sellers on Ebay asking if they can check before i buy....no luck there either.

maybe, do you guys know if certain drives are more in circulation then others? like did they start with the Hitachi and now mostly manufacturing with BenQ?

I have found when buying off e-bay you typically get ones with Samsung drives in them. Especially if they are not hdmi. But thats just my experience.

I am not to be trusted. i sell 360's, with RROD and drives that are guaranteed to scratch your game discs. HDMI, or non HDMI. Sammy and BenQ drives. Complete systems for 1500 and up. You really need one, let me know. I'll gladly rip you off, i have no shame whatsoever.
