I am wanting to know if this can be done??

The players in question are:

Samsung BD-C6900 3D Blu Ray Player
Samsung BD-C7900 3D Blu Ray Player

i am wanting to take out the internal drive inside the C7900 and put the drive from the C6900 into the C7900 player to make the C7900 player a region B/2 player

the reason for this is cos the C7900 is only on the American samsung site, the only player on the UK site is the C6900

the reason I am after the C7900 is cos it is the only 3D samsung player available which has 2 hdmi outputs which solves the problem of the HD audio options via a standard av receiver that is not compatible with 3D..

I am not interested in the panasonic 3D blu ray player cos I have a samsung 3D tv that has anynet+ and I want that feature to be kept..

Please can anyone help, give info etc..

Thanks,

Can't help with your direct question but have you considered searching to see if there's a code which can convert the C7900 into a multi-region or region B/2? These codes were available for a lot of DVD players and the Bluray may be similar.
