well man
we need a little more info.
did you get a good dump of your firmware.by that i mean do you have the key for you dvd drive.
will it play dvd movies
will it play orig 360 games if it wont then the first thing you need to do is this restore.this will only work if you have a good orig firmware with a good key.

have you connected the drive properly using sata and the power cable which powers the drive, check the connections again
