Sadly my Pioneer BDR-209 which was flashed to (BDR-211) recently to be libre enabled died..
i had issues earlier on with the drawer tray not sliding out.. this drive was bought in the year 2013 (11 years old already!!)
so i decided to totally open it up to clean the rubber band, but it slipped out, and thats when all the trouble started. using tweezers i had to slowly put it back into the groove. then by accident the whole drawer tray fell out!! i managed to put everything back together again, n power it up, but now any discs i put into it, the drive is turning and whirring, but it cant read (Pick up) any discs in it.
oh well, there goes my 209 flashed to a 211 down the rubbish dump..
Sad... was a sturdy disk drive..
