Hi Guys,
In this guide I’ll explain how to replace the Blu-ray drive it’s PCB. This is required when you swap your motherboard.

First of all, remove the sticker/tape from the back of the drive to reveal the 2 other screws. You can do this with your fingers, it could take a little force, but not too much.
-
-
-
Remove the 4 PH1 screws.
-
Lift up the back cover and remove it. It should not take any force and should come off easily. I lifted it up at the left side.
-
-
-
Open up all the 3 ZIF connectors with your finger nails or with an plastic opening tool carefully.
-
Then remove the 3 ribbon cables from their sockets.
-
-
-
-
You will see an red and an black cable soldered to the PCB.
-
Now get your solder iron ready to desolder the 2 cables. Heat and melt the solder, with your other hand hold the tweezer. When the solder is melting, remove the cable with your tweezer to get the cable out.
-
Now it should look like the last photo.
You can also slide the drive out of the bottom half of the metal case and then unscrew the motor and bring it with the PCB to the new drive (assuming the motor is good).
That is correct! You can transfer the motor to the new drive if the motor is OK. I created this guide if you need to replace the motherboard. But yes this is an option if you replace the drive only :).

-
Hold the PCB and move it up. You should notice that PCB will come loose from the drive.
-
Now hold in the middle and move it upward a little and the back to yourself. Be aware that it will need a little force (especially from the right side, as a clip is holding it down), but it should come off easily.
-
That's it! You got the PCB out!

Photo 2 shows correctly how the PCB need to be seated. As you can see in the blue circles.
on my PCB the little arrow is sticking out and not going back in, I'm assuming that it has to do with the eject function. which my Xbox one doesn't do now.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
Hopefully this guide helped you to replace the PCB!

I got a refurbished disc drive for Xbox one console and later learned logic board had to be switched. What's that?

Hi!
Yes, you need to use your old PCB. If you do not transfer your (original) PCB from your drive, you’ll not be able to play games..
I also did not know you needed to replace the PCB with the optical drive. However, the new one will not even suck in a disc, just like the old one did not. Does this mean the new drive is bad as well, or just needs PCB? Would not replacing PCB make the thing not even receive a disc?
Hi there!
You are required to swap the PCB to play games. With an non-married PCB to your current motherboard, should still accept discs! You’ll be able to watch movies only. Are you sure that everything is dust free? Perhaps you got another faulty drive… The issue you describe is common.
I just did this with a new disc drive and it still will not read discs. It sucks the disc in and will eject but will not read discs. When I insert a disc into the new drive it makes a strange noise like my previous disc drive was doing. Is my new disc drive bad?
Hi Chad!
That is possible yes. Strange noise could refer to the worm motor. Try to trade in the new disc drive and try again!
Finally found out why my drive was making an ejecting noise on start from these photos.
It was because the white plastic part shown under the red circle was off to the right and wasnt pushing that button/ in.
Alright! Glad that you were able to fix it :)!
Let's say I got the PCB out, can I attach to different blue ray drive, from PC or laptop?
Or does it have to specific model. Any mods available?
No, it needs to be the specific blu-ray drive. If it's the exact same model as from the Xbox one, you can swap it. Not sure if there are any mods available.
i broke the zif clip, black piece, on the smallest ribbon, can i get a new zif connector and put it on the PCB ribbon connector? if so any ideas on where i can get a zif connector from?
Hi Greg! Yes you can. Here you can buy a lot of different ZIF connectors: https://www.csconn.com/products.aspx
Please make sure that you have the right one. It's not easy to replace it as you need to solder to get it fixed.
Thank You!!!!!!!!!
So what errors do you see if you use the wrong board? Will games not install? Will Blu ray still play? Would it not do anything? I recently swapped out a disc drive and I'm 90 percent sure I used the right disc drive board but it won't install any games. Just don't want to tear it all apart for that not to be the case.
So, the error you get is basically that it won't install nor detect a game. It should still play DVD (or Blu-Ray) movies. It could be that your new drive is faulty... Please check if you hear any weird sounds or anything.
