Newer DVD drive on 770--it works!

#1 Post by catnap1972 » Fri Mar 17, 2006 1:10 pm

Bought a newer M a t s u s h i t a SR-8178 drive off of Ebay to replace the SR-8171 that was already in there and with just some slight modifications to the bezel from the old drive, I got the newer drive to fit perfectly! Very economical and it even reads DVD+/-R's to boot (I think it may work with DVD-RAM as well but haven't tried yet).
