My games could be inserted, but the machine would struggle to play them and would make several clicking noises between attempts to spin, then make an ejection sound, but fail to actually eject the disc.. After manually ejecting and inserting the disc (often more than 10 attempts and putting my machine at a series of angles was required) it would eventually read my games. This was far from ideal and was informed it was likely the laser and / or drive was dying and would only be a matter of time it would die completely.I snapped up the required model using the Nextek chart, and attempted to swap my drive myself. I followed a simple "how to" guide and within an hour, my machine was up and whirring again and so far 100% success of reading my old discs. Perfect.I am a complete novice when it comes to replacing hardware, however this was relatively simple. Just take your time, pay attention to EVERYTHING you do and work in an environment free of clutter. Happy gaming. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Replacement BluRay player for PS3 *by T***. on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 February 2014* Experiencing the same problems as J Shaw - stuttering drive, whirring noises, games not loading or disc not being recognised.Came across this and thought I'd give it a go - cheaper than replacing the PS3!Arrived on the day it promised and within 1/2 hour the BluRay player in the PS3 is working fine.The instructions on the NexTec website aren't great, so I searched on YouTube and found 2 excellent videos from BubbleTonic on how to take apart your PS3 and, more importantly, how to put it back together with the new disc player.[...][...]BubbleTonic replaces the actual laser part of the BluRay player - but you just skip this part as the whole unit is replaced.Just be careful on the connections when putting it back together - I thought I'd been sent a duff but I hadn't connected one of the main connectors properly - they can be a bit fiddly.The drive from NexTec looked identical to the one it replaced.As soon as I placed a disc in the drive there was no more stuttering or whirring noises and the disc loaded straight away. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "CPR" 4 "PS3" *by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 August 2016* I love it - it has given my PS3 a new lease of life. I was suffering with not being able to read blu-ray movies or games, but now I can. I looked into getting a newer PS3, but they're about £90+. So getting another drive and I recommend looking at a few youtube vids on how to change a drive over is so worth the time. It did take me about an hour to swap the drives out - I was looking at the videos, pausing them - double and triple checking what I was doing and progressing. It is a little finicky for people like myself with "Sausage Fingers" but I did it and it works and the kids can play Ratchet & Clank again. Everybody's happy.Also, this is the first time I've done this sort of thing with a game console, and it felt really good to have fixed something rather than replace it.And the Torx T8 which is included is EXTREMELY handy.Thank You Nextec --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/54075692-console-repair-part-ps3-slim-drive-kes-450a-ps3-slim](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/54075692-console-repair-part-ps3-slim-drive-kes-450a-ps3-slim) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
