Review on Replacement KEM 450AAA CECH 2001A CECH 2001B CECH 2101A by Andrew Krishna

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Bought new, used to it.

Our PS3 had problems reading discs of all kinds; We narrowed it down to a floppy drive and when we got it it already had a few scratches. As soon as we installed it, it had a loud, scary grinding noise and still wouldn't read discs. So we announced we were going, but a good shot and installed our original floppy drive and it worked._. but shortly after that we found that he was reading discs whenever he wanted which was very frustrating and he was freezing! We did further investigation and concluded that this is a software issue. I formatted my PS3 last night and this morning I tested 5 different games on discs and it worked every time! If you go this route, back up your data manually. If you're using a PS3 backup system and restoring it, the error that could be due to the drive not reading could still be present in your restore (this happened to us, so we're reformatting). Good luck everyone! *** Product *** I believe it's now marked as used, just think about what you're buying and how to install it because it doesn't come with anything (which I expected, it wasn't a problem). but for those who had installation as expected. The internet just became your best friend) I'm also not sure about installing a new drive, about flashing the system, how to sync new hardware, and maybe that's why ours didn't work, it's ok lol , It turns out we don't need it!

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Replacement availability
