If you're just trying to get it to boot up, you can literally plug in any DVD drive.
If you want to use a drive again, I'd be looking for a samsung to replace the hitachi.

The OG xbox isn't that particular about what dvd drive you plug in. Only HDDs

They don't really come cheap, though.

You said in your original post you only need the PCB part- does this mean you don't need to use the drive to read disks? If so (like gebbers said) you should be able to plug in any IDE DVD drive's board. That'll be a heck of a lot cheaper than trying to get an actual Xbox-compatible drive.

On the original Xbox IIRC the only thing locked to the mobo is the HDD. As long as that matches and it detects the other hardware (IDE drive, controller port daughterboards, etc) it should boot up.
