i had a prob with ps3 where the disc wouldnt spin. i replaced with a blueray drive i know works and now the disc spins but it still wont read the disc. any ideas?
a friend bought this not working and he wants to give it to his boy for his birthday tomorrow so it does not have a warranty. Now can I have a constructive answer instead of comments about a situation you have no knowledge of. If you dont know the answer to the question you shouldn't be anwering them.
Allright guys, I've fixed the problem. If you switch out the blu ray drive on a ps3 you have to replace the board on the new drive with the board from the old drive. Sony calls this a sisterboard and it is somehow synced with the motherboard so you can't change it. And by the way, I fixed it for $60 which is half what Sony charges for it's "warranty" work.
 
you should've send it to sony now its gonna cost you more because you voided the warranty.
