Philips Drive dodgy?
my xbox has evox/avalaunch on xecuter 2.2, now evox reports most of the times as "no disc" wenever a dvd/cd is inserted, some times it does get it and i'm able to play but most, no. Is the drive broken? is it software?

Sounds like your reader has read to many discs....
 I doubt its anything software related, probably your drive going down...

No they aren't. Almost a rip off
My thompson drive had died as well. Or rather, it reads very badly and randomly gives dirty disk errors in games (backups and originals). The only game that doesn't is Halo 2 (maybe because it is mostly cached?). I never replaced it though. I have an upgraded HDD and play off of that. The drive works to stream the game to the hard disk, and that's all I need it for.

Another solution would be this,
get a standard PC DVD-reader. It will read all your backups if you have a modchip. Unfortunately it wont read originals so perhaps it won't help that much...

Oh yes, get a Y-splitter cable for the HDD power connector (one of these) and use one for the HDD and the other for the DVD...
