Xbox one x disc drive issue

XFactor047 · Nov 24, 2017

I am having an issue with the disc drive when ejecting discs when I press the eject button and the disc pops out then as I go to grab it, without touching it, it slides back in. It will keep doing this as I try to change out the game. I had the same exact issue
with my og Xbox One and eventually that Xbox One stopped reading discs. Is this something that needs replacing or is there something else I can do?

Xbox One X Loud disc Drive when installing games.

I noticed My Xbox One X ‘s Disc Drive make a very loud sound while games install from disc? Is my Disc Drive faulty? Does anyone else have/has this issue? I don’t really want to send it in for repair and I really don’t want to exchange it at a retailer
for a new one since it’s a project Scorpio edition.

It actually does. I got the Series X this holiday at $349, and the same disc is working perfectly. I have determined that the Xbox One X disc drive is trying to read Cross Gen discs differently than Xbox One discs. The disc drive on the Series X doesn’t have this issue. You might need a new disc or you might need to send your Series X for maintenance.

I had three discs from different stores..

My brother had the same issue.

The last disc (which wouldn't read on my One X or my original Xbox one) works perfectly fine on my Series X.

It's not a faulty disc.

It's older drives and cross gen games.

My One X played everything else perfectly.

It's an issue with these cross gen x/s discs..

Nothing you can say is going to convince me otherwise..

Hi,

Sounds like the laser in your console's Blu-ray drive has a hardware issue.

To test if your Xbox One X has issues reading discs, try playing a DVD movie disc. If can't read DVD movie discs either then your console has a hardware fault.

Note: It must be a DVD movie disc, not a Blu-ray movie disc.

There are two lasers in the Blu-ray drive, one for reading Blu-ray discs and one for DVD discs. Xbox One games use Blu-ray and the 360 console used a DVD drive.

There is an official stand for the xbox one x but that being said it's always advisable to stand your xbox on its base because using them vertically can cause damage to physical discs and disc drive issues.

Sorry about your issue there.

Is it just this one game or do other Xbox 360 discs have issues?

The Series X optical drive contains two lasers, one for reading DVD discs and one for reading Blu-Ray discs.

Have you also tried DVD movie discs to see if they play? They must be DVD discs, not HD or UHD BD discs.

Unfortunately if the drive has a fault reading discs, you'll need to get it repaired. If your console is out of warranty it will be at a cost.
