hey guys,

my ps3 slimline wont read disks anymore, started sporadically now pretty much 100% of the time. it takes the disk, doesnt really spin up, just makes an "eject" noise or something similar like its trying to rearrange the disk or something. the disk never pops up. it has the "reading" logo spinning up the top but after it makes the clunk, then tries again to read it, it just stops.

anyway, i think its just the laser has gone to shit, so how do i find out whethere it is the kes-450 or kem-450? is there even a difference?

i can replace it easily enough myself, just need to know which laser to buy on ebay.

ps3 slimline, says i have XXGB/111GB, so that will be what? a 120gb?
model CECH-2002A date code: 9c

yeah "120gb" formatted is 111GB or thereabouts.
