Before Modding My Xbox, Should I Return It?

Try a cd/DVD cleaner in it they do get dirty evrn from the manufacturer

And yes if the drive looks messed up return it first before modding.
I've seen a lot of new faulty X-Boxes... however they were replaced by older refurb boxes!

Seriously though, if you have one friend who only casually uses their Xbox and has a non-Thompson, propose a switch. They may agree to it and it's not like they really lose out anyway.

Just an idea.

As far as I know (From HSDemonz etc) if you intend to never play official xbox games and want the xbox for other reasons (what ever they may be) you can use any dvd drive in there

EDIT you may need to knock off the DVD drive check from your bios using xbtool though

Heck I believe you can replace it with another HD then
