there are a couple normal pc dvd drives that work with the xbox but your best bet would be to buy an xbox dvd drive search ebay and i think or go here but i think ebay would be cheaper

the Samsung 616t modding tutorial

http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/samsung-616t.php

http://www.xbox-modchips.com/tutorials.html

The second link is to a page full of every resource I have ever seen..the drive tutorial is a fair way down..

There are some support threads that can be reached from links in the articles

this is a guide for the LG 8163b

For all the notes and support information relating to this article please see http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=400274

Both drives if modded will work with original games in a stock xbox to the best of my knowlege

There is rumored to be a way to alter the LG 8164b in the pipeline as well.. As it's a current drive I'm watching out for more info..

But before you do any of that follow the guides here
