| epsilon72 said: The BenQ dvd drives are the quiet ones. MS was putting them in 360's before the elite was on the market, but it was more or less luck as to whether you would get one with a BenQ as opposed to a loud Toshiba/Samsung or Hitachi.
I think (but I'm not sure) all 360's come with quieter drives now. |
Wrong the BenQ drive is not quiet but you might have the new Hitachi LG drive. There is a launch Hitachi drive at the begining of the 360 and then there is a new Hitachi LG drive in the Elite. I have the new Hitachi LG drive and its quiet like a mouse. I here nothing even when my tv is down. When its loading a game you can tell that its speeding up to read the disc but after that you don't here the lens moving back and forth or the drive louder than the old Hitachi drives. BenQ drives are not quiet either they have problems. People said on youtube.com that it loads like a 3.5" Floppydisk....lol...here is the link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN3fQ9qtNWQ
