Avoid lite on drive

Post by gerryb10 »

Ok I am purchasing a new 360 drive soon and would like to know the best way to avoid the new lite-on drive, be it by looking at mfr date or lot number?

really don't wanna piss on your strawberries but it's highly unlikely u will avoid 1 now

all that being said... anything with an mfr date before april 08 should be ok

are you getting just a dvd drive
then just search on ebay for what you want.

if you are getting a whole 360 hang it up man.
