I believe the best drive IMHO is the MS25 - the only only problems I have found with them (them being Samsungs) is that after a while they tend to have problems opening, sometimes it's due to the magnet wich holds the disk on being to strong and sometimes it's because the little "o" ring the opens and closes the drive wears out...(easy fixes) but apart from that I believe there the best drive

Hi gigabite,
I was wondering if you could point out to a tutorial or pics as where the "o" ring is located and where to buy a replacement part.  I'm having the same issue myself with my MS25.  It wont open
and the disk that is stuck which is an original game just spins and then stops and I get open tray.
any help is greatly appreciated.

Well, your going to have to take apart the drive to access the "o" ring so while your there you can pull out the game (or you can do it manually...look at llama 360 in g00gle) - the "o" ring pulls the tray forwards and back but can tend to become warn (OR it can be the magnet being to strong///in which case lightly bend the drive in an up position: so your pushing the two sides together...not right together just a bit so the magnet isn't to strong)...you can find the "o" ring at the front of the drive - if you open the tray while the 360 is on (which you can't) you will see an "o" type ring connecting 2 wheels...this is directly at the front of the drive where all the cogs and crap are....you can find replacement ones, well, office supply stores (get a bag of various rubber bands and see which ones fits the tightest) or at a car place if your lucky
