O woe me! I broke my Xbox 360. What do?

Where on earth did you get a new XBox 360 Drive for R300?

It would just be a compatible DVD drive (http://www.360drives.com/howto , http://www.topmicrousa.com/newxb360todv.html), you can buy these locally for peanuts. Obviously it wouldn't have the fancy front cover, which is what you pay for with the original, but functionally identical.

Hm... interesting. I blew R600 bucks on my xbox repair :/
