I wore my samsung unit out. It was never a stout unit to begin with and had lots of quirks and bugs but now it just does not work with the CDa and it pisses me off. I am going to sell it off for parts on eBay soon but if anyone here wants it make me an offer.

one of mine is not loading cd's, it was working last time I used it, bought a cd cleaner kit hoping that it just needs cleaned.

So I know it's been 18 years since the Nuon was released, but all this has me wondering 1) if we know the part number of the optical drive itself? If not, I might take one of mine apart and see if I can find the number 2) If there is a way to order the optical drive?

hmmmm, since mine is broken I can open mine tomorrow and look at it. I wanna watch it while I put disc in and out anyway. Wondering if mine is simply a little rubber band that broke. It looks like their should be one, but I can't see it if there is. Wanna see what else turns, just didn't have time to do it before work the other day. I wonder wth the change to blu rays what the odds are these drives would still be available or something else can be used

Thankfully I have another 501, although it has been acting quirky too, and I got the sd2300last year at a pawn shop. Kinda thinking about picking up another 501 now since this one freaked and my other one does odd stuff from time to time

So I think the trick is, the DVD-S321 and M104 and 105 are compatible. What were their release years? Would other DVD players of Samsung close to their release dates also work?
