So as the title is asking, has anyone got one. I have a scratched up c6 host with a messed up pill and a scratched up heatsink. I thought i cant just let it go to waste so has anyone got a dvd burner thats at least 8x? I know probably no one is going to send give me one, but hey u never know unless you try. Thankks guys :beer:

You should check out to those computer shops/manufacturing factories, they always throw out old computer stuff. I've even asked my local one and they were fine with it as long as i didnt make a mess.

Any thrift / second hand stores? I find some better than the one in my computer for 5 bucks. Theirs a pile of half decent ones there every day.

I havn't seen any in there and we only have 2 shops and i know 1 for sure isnt allowed to sell electronics. I will hunt around and try and see if i can find some.

EDIT: I failed my c6 build, i was gona make a phr 805t but the c6 host didn't come with a brass ring for the pill and i think thats where the failure started. So i superglued teh contact board into place and i thought i messed it up when i removed the components so i had to drill a hole for the positive and put a big solder blob and for the negative i filled half the pill with solder. So when i tried to put it together the x-drive wouldn't go in. So i thought, i dont care what it looks like now as long as it works. So i sanded a bit of the anodizing off the threads and heatsink and got rid of all the solder in the pill. But then i shorted the circuit out and blew the diode, i am pretty sure the driver still works though. A very scratched up c6 host is just sitting there waiting to be built into something. I dont want to spend very much on it because it looks so crap though.

Can you post a picture of it? Just curious as to how scratched up it really is....

I JUST DE-ANODIZED IT I used oven cleaner to de-anodize it and its kind of got a frosted look now. I kind of like it though. Here are some pics, sorry my camera isnt that good. Btw im going to put a phr in it now since its looking good.
