    Hi Guys,
    Had this machine for 16months and now the Maa uj-130a wont read discs.Expected a bit more life than this drive,poor choice by Sager.
    Parts crapping out like this so soon out of warranty is not excusable here in
    New Zealand.Failure so soon is considered poor workanship and we can get
    redress under our Consumers gaurantee act.You guys here in the US let them get away with murder.
    Let me get back on track after my rave.
    What can anyone suggest will fit and be much more reliable.
    Welcolme all suggestions.
    Thanks
    Regards
    Les

    Hiya,

    Any of the standard laptop optical drives should work, you will have to remove the bezial from the front of the drive and put it on the new one as the old one will not work :)
