17 PS3 Blu Ray

For any of you out there that own a PS3, I wonder if you could help solve my problem.
Recently our PS3 stopped reading all blu ray disks, both movies and games. It still plays regular DVD's and PS1 games fine though. It will still start blu ray games sometimes, but it will stick early in the game or on a loading screen. We called Sony about it and all they could say is to send it in and they will fix it for $150, but we were really hoping to try and fix it without having to do that.

Any suggestions?

Looks like you got the famous PS3 BD-drive failure. I would suggest checking if the disks are spinning in the drive. To do that take a game disc and insert it into the drive and check which way the image is facing, and then eject it after a few moments, if the letters and images face the same way, then the disc hasn't spun at all inside the drive, so the drive motor is dead, i think you need to take it to one of those ps3 repair shops
I think you need to send them off to sony for a new disc drive.It's a disc drive failure.if you use it a lot then you may have just worn it out. ialso advise that you call sony tech support just to verify that that is the problem. It'll be $150 for the repair but worth the fix if you use it so much time.
