Hello all,
One question
Is it possible to connect this drive internally to the PC?
Via SATA connection?
Any walkthroughs would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I tried the Windvd 8 with no luck. I then bought Powerdvd Ultra off the Ebay for about $6 and It plays Hd dvd Flawlessly. I Only paid $8 for the Windvd 8 Platnum
from ebay so I am not out a lot of money. I will probably install it on another PC
just for standard DVD’s. $56 dollars for a Hd dvd player that works on my 100″
projection Home Theater is great. I do have a Nvidia 8600gt Graphics card with HDMI out for my projector. I just Watched Planet Earth That my sister gave me for my birthday and it was unbelievable.

Is there any other place or anyone that is willing to share the drivers? Now with HD Dvd dead, we need to take the content from it and move to the PC or a Blue Ray disk ?? Thanks

Ok so it’s March 7th and HD is going bye bye….their selling the player at Micro Center near me in Saint Davids PA for $49. Makes it a much more affordable option even if you want to use it as a standard dvd player on the Xbox to avoid burning out the system laser playing movies.

Local K-Mart has these XBox 360 drives for $50.

Well with the Xbox add-on now only $50 sounds like a great bargain if you need an external drive for a PC.

Can you get 1080P out of it on a PC (obviously with the right hardware in the PC, i.e. a HDMI output)?

Or how easy is it to copy the movies to a MediaDrive?

Your Wrong, the 360 HD-DVD Drive is now only $50
