My attempts to clean the lens/mirror of an Xbox DVD drive (Thompson) were unsuccessful. I will need to do a DVD Drive transplant. I have seen that Philips and Samsung are the brands that make Xbox compatible DVD drives. My question is which specific model numbers are the ones they make that work with the original Xbox?

If you have a modded XBOX, you can replace the dvd drive with any DVD drive, but you must do an EEPROM Replacement.
If your box is stock and you do NOT go onto LIVE, you can replace the dvd drive with any DVD drive.
If you have a stock XBOX and you DO go on LIVE, you cannot replace your drive. The first time you logged onto LIVE, Microsoft made a permanent check of 3 things, your XBOX EEPROM, Hard Drive Serial #, and DVD Drive Serial #. If you change the HDD or DVD, when you log onto LIVE, it will note the different serial # and you will get banned. I've done it, and it sucks. I ended up modding my box and getting a new EEPROM.
Honestly, your best bet is just to get a new box, unless you were looking to mod...which I highly suggest.
