I saw a picture of a Black HD Drive on this forum some where so you should be able to buy a skin or out a Black case on it.

Ive not seen any replacement cases for the HD-DVD drive so the only way to get a black case would be to spray it

Alternatively, buy some sticky-back vinyl. Measure / cut & stick it over the case.

Do a quick search there was a thread about this a while ago with pics and a link of how to take your drive apart to paint it. Skins and vinyl look awful, if you want it black then paint is the only way.
