Why? Because you're illegally modding your console?
Real smart question.
REAL smart.

modchipping isnt illegal, its the copying of games and selling them which is illegal.

Gspawn what the hell r u blabbing about? Modding xbox's is not illigal and some people do it so they can mod halo.

if it has more than one hole in the disc tray, then it's a samsung... i have the halo green xbox also (pretty sweet) and it is a samsung.. i think all are?

Well... apparently gspawn is a moron...

the samsung drive is the fastest loading dvd drive, and it is the most reliable

just because i ask how to get the best dvd drive does not mean i plan on modding my system, i have never and never plan to mod one of my game systems

perhaps you should think before jumping to an ignorant conclusion
