....if their Xbox has a Thompson drive, apparently the game runs like hell on them and crashes frequently.

Luckily I've got a Samsung.

Runs like a beast on my Thomson, the only time I can really hear it loading is when the game starts up and when i'm entering a new house for the first time.

Makes for a very nice read, well for me at least seeing as my Box is 2 months old.

Microsoft used 2 types of drive right from the beginning. I think it was an issue with getting one drive. I believe they added a third make later on...

Wow, I'm quite surprised that mine is a Samsung

Pleasing though, I bought mine about 3 months after they were released in the UK so I'm guessing that the older drives in general are the better ones
