I fried my dvd drive pcb

First of all, they are fun to do!

Second of all, they become more financially viable when you make trades for people's old PCBs. (keep their failed kamikaze + $, send out one of your replacements)

I mean, it takes me 20 minutes max to swap the IC

I can fix it, easily in fact.

One of two things has happened.

1. You blew a cap and a 0 ohm resistor.

In this case, its a very easy fix. Replace the cap and resistor

2. You blew more stuff further down the line, making it not worth trying to diagnose.

In this case, a MT chip swap to a new PCB would bring it right back. Easy stuff for someone good at lifting chips and soldering.

Very rarely is the MT chip actually fried when you plug in a slim upside-down.

So all the info goes onto the new drive and new pcb and the 360 sees it as the original drive

I fried my friends when i flashed his the first time. Plugged in backwards. Luckily i had already dumped the key file.
