    • Remove the three 3 mm T10 screws securing the hard drive to the Xbox.

    • There is one screw on the rear left side of the hard drive that is only visible when the IDE ribbon cable is lifted up. The other two are at the front right and left sides of the hard drive.

    • The screw on the lower left corner of the disk drive is not in the hole that it appears to be in, but rather just closer to the corner.

    • Remove two PH1 screws

    • Gently pull up on the ribbon retaining tab. Do NOT pull on ribbon. It will slide itself out in final step

    • Orange/Yellow steps only required if you need to remove the entire PCB

    • Gently pull up on the ribbon retaining tab. Ribbon is attached to underside of PCB via a sticky pad. Gently pull the ribbon away from pad

    • Desolder both points. Red (Left) Black (Right)

    • Gently press up on the PCB where you removed the two PH1 screws and rotate the board upside down

    • If your drive is "dead" this is where I would suggest replacing your electrolytic capacitors. There are 12 on the Thomson drive

    • With the drive upside down slide the white lever to the right

    • Drive door will eject about a half inch

  15. Xbox Thomson DVD Drive Disassembly, Apply Grease & Clean Laser: stap 15, afbeelding 1 van 2 Xbox Thomson DVD Drive Disassembly, Apply Grease & Clean Laser: stap 15, afbeelding 2 van 2
    • These drives are seasoned. Model 1.0 Xboxes were made in 2001 and nearly 20yrs old now. It's wise to re-lubricate them anywhere moving parts or friction is applied

    • If your drive door sticks when pressing the eject button, now is the time to replace your drive belt. Do this before applying grease to eliminate accidentally getting it on your belt

    • Apply grease to highlighted areas

    • Don't forget the tooth track, highlighted yellow, shown in previous step

    • Apply a liberal glob of grease along the tooth track and insert/withdraw the drive door a few times to easily lubricate the gears highlighted pink

    • With a cotton swab, gently clean your laser with 91% or higher isopropyl alcohol

Conclusie

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
