chances are you wont be able to find an xbox in a store...
if you do get one you'll either get a Philips 2k4 drive, the samsung 605f or the HLDATA drive...
IF anyone with one would submit their serial number like i asked earlier... we may be able to tell which consoles are shipping with these drives.
I submitted information to the xbox-linux page earlier when i had a few of these consoles, but the page seems to be taken down now :-/

they got their shipment in yesterday and they said to come by tomorrow and pick one up.

well can you let us know if they have the drive, and what the serial number is. maybe donate that info to the xbox-linux page.

OK so lets see here as I understand this means:

Line 4
Week 45 of 2004 production
In Taiwan

If people don't want to post there entire serial number they shouldn't have to, according to xbox-linux the serial breaks down like this

LNNNNNN YWWFF

FF is the code of the factory (02: Mexico, 03: Hungary, 05: China, 06: Taiwan), L the number of the production line within the factory, Y the last digit of the production year, WW the number of the week of the production year, and NNNNNN the number of the Xbox within this week.

So really you don't have to give us the NNNNNN its just a little extra information of when it was produced.

fucking gamestop told me yesterday they had their shipment in, and the lady the other day told me to come tuesday to get one cause thats when they were getting them, i fucking hate that place. i hope it blows up. so i can get my $80 in credit back.

thats right, all we need to know is where it was made, what preoduction line it was on, and what week of what year.

submittign this data to the xbox-linuix page is the best way of doing this. its an ongoing database, so that would be where it is most approipate to put this info

Did anyone try the asus E616P2 drive?
