Xbox one only reading certain discs

you can try this and see if it works but also the eye on the xbox intend to stick alot and causes issues like this. press "Y". Do not select "A". Select "Clear System Cache". Perform Maintenance, click "Yes".

The laser in the DVD ROM is starting to fail on your Xbox - I've seen this myself on an old console. It will start with a few discs being flakey in terms of reading, while others work fine. Then some discs won't read at all and the others will start following
this pattern until no discs read, giving you the "Open Tray" error where it doesn't even recognize a disc is inserted. A disc cleaner or blowing out dust might help for a short while, but your console will need repair. If it is less than a year old, then warranty
will cover it. If it is out of warranty I believe the repair cost is about $100.

It's an imported piece of proprietary technology which increases repair costs. This is the second console you've purchased and both suffered optical drive failure within 1.5 years... unlike Apple Microsoft doesn't do the whole planned obsolescence thing...
chances are the console is either poorly ventilated or the laser is over-used.

Surely if the laser was overused then surely no games would work? It is always kept well ventilated area. I just think its disgusting how they still manage to squeeze money out of you for any little thing.

I understand that, but after spending a ridiculous amount of money on my xbox i expect it to work for longer than a year. But £74 for it to be fixed is ridiculous.
