You are going to have to get the DVD Key from the original drive, so that it will match with the system. If you said the older drive was flashed, if you have the data from that backed up, then you shouldn't have a problem swapping with a different drive. Otherwise the keys with the system and the drive won't match, and will cause problems.

I thought that was what swapping the logic board did?

If he swaps the logic board, then he should be fine, but if the whole thing is completely dead, that won't be an option for him.

It shouldn't be that hard to do; just removing some wiring and getting it off the old drive, and then putting it on the new drive. Shouldn't be hard at all!

The key is on the logic board, so you shouldn't have to worry.
