I cut my spare dvd drive from my first xbox that broke, i assembled it together yet because i didn't find a chroming solution...

I don't think that it will cause the DVD drive to run any louder, my one is loud as it is with some games and quieter with others, it probably depends where it reads different discs from, they will spin faster when the data is read from the outside of the disc and slower from the inside so that would effect the noise. And some games might have higher priority data written at the end as oppose to others. Its just a theory and could be completely wrong, but try playing different games and see how it effects the sound.

Also it could be coming from you causing minor damage to he drive while modding, try figure out if the sound is cause by the fast spinning disc or by the mechanism itself, the noise could also be caused by the disc hitting the top casing if it got slightly bent while cutting.

i did a pretty damn clean job. didn't slip anything so i think its not some mechanism. its just the air moving like the disc spinning is loud, it not harsh or anything. just quite loud, louder then my pc! i experimented with it and i believe its the disc spinning fast and when i removed the steel covering that covers the top of the 360 to make a clear window in the 360 that would block the noise but now without it its louder. did you cover your with plexi or something?

Hey where did you get that clear side for the sweet 360
having a higher post count doesn't earn respect in the forums, quality posts do.

thanks,

deda and reaper

He's actually doing his drivers license.

Have no shame in being kindly and gentle, but if the time comes in the time of your life to kill, kill and have no regret. In the time of your life, live so that, in that wonderous time you shall not add to the misery and sorrow of the world, but shall smile to the infinite delight and mystery of it.
