How to replace dvd drive

I found this response to your question:

"You cannot replace the disc drive in your Xbox 360.

The DVD drive will only work on the original console it was installed on. They are have a key on the firmware that has to match a key on the motherboards JTAG otherwise it wont work.

You could Spoof the drive though but you need to look that up on your own as me telling you how would be against the rules.

You can replace the laser assembly but that is if you purchased the same drive as your original console had.

Otherwise you need to find an the same drive or a laser assembly that will fit your drive. But you cannot use a new drive."
