xbox drive

I want to flash the firmware so i can backup my games. Thing is as it was a shared xmas present between me and my bro i dont want to nacker it. What i was wondering was if i can get hold of another samsung drive, could i take the old one out and use the new one when its been flashed? If so how much do you think a new drive would cost, ive checked ebay and there are drive to put in your pc but not for the actual xbox, any for the xbox are "faulty"

You can, but you'll need to place the current drive's key into the new drive BEFORE you flash it so your XBOX can recognise it.

The Samsung drives need to be done properly first time, or else you'll lose your key - and then you have a nice 360 shaped paper weight and DVD player

If you can't find another drive and are worried about hosing your drive, why not send it to someone who can do the service for you?
