[QUOTE="laurit1, post: 869202, member: 21608"] I was wondering if anyone had had the same problem I am having: Everytime I put a CD/ DVD into my disk drive (13" MacBook), my comp. trys to read the disk for 10-15 seconds and then the disk is ejected. I am assuming that my optical drive is shot and I need a new one, but I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem/ has any insight into what might be wrong? Also, any thoughts on what might be the most cost effective replacement if my drive is in fact done. My MacBook is no longer under warranty so I was thinking that instead of spending the $$ to get a new drive installed, buying a cheap external drive for $80 might be the cheaper temp. option if I'll be upgrading to a new Mac w/in the next year or so. Thoughts?? [/QUOTE]
