Xbox 360 DVD drive swapping

Is it possible to swap differant brands of drives just by swapping the PCB? The drives I am thinking of swapping are a Hitachi and Samsung drive.

Thanks

No. They use different PCBs. You will have to dump the firmware of the one board, and extract the key, and then flash the other board with the key and spoof the firmware. Pretty complicated actually.

Read my sig, I can do it.

They use different PCBs and the ribbon cables are different.
