I've got a 360 Premium console which is faulty.
The fault is that it does not always read disks. Just over a year old and has gone out of warrenty with Microsoft. Has got the latest "firmware" on it (1.3) And its a Sammy drive. It's had the laser changed, but no luck getting it to read discs. Originals read better than backups. I think it probably needs the drive replacing.
I didnt flash it, or put the latest firmware on it, had that when I got it. My question is.............if i get the drive changed, will it need to be replaced with a Sammy drive, and, tbh, i have no idea how the 360 is flashed so will changing the drive affect it?
I can get it repaired for £60, but I want to be able to play backups on it

lol
