Dont use any hong kong supplier on ebay as they sent me a bricked second hand Benq.

trouble is the other parts that site in america are selling,they sell the ms28 for 360 it looks to me to be a xbox drive.:confused:

Philips and Benq worked together to build the 6038 drive Benq/Phillips. It is proper 360 replacement. They are expensive cos they are sought after and hard to find. I always have a spare from a supplier if they have any more will post as it was only 35 pounds.

Thats about 35 quid and postage to uk 4.95
