dbminter Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Looking for an answer to a question about Playstation 3's from any user who wishes to answer. Do PS3's have loading trays like the PS2 did and what you see on standard DVD drives for PC? I ask because while looking at them, it seems to me that they don't. That you can only load discs by slipping them into a slot on the PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Mine has a slot. It's *not* a new slimline version so I can't speak for those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted April 8, 2011 Author Share Posted April 8, 2011 I would guess that slim line PS3 wouldn't have a tray loader in it if 1.) the older PS3's don't have one and 2.) I would think adding one versus reusing the older slot method would mean making the PS3 somewhat larger to accommodate a tray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Both the slim and phat versions use a slot type thingy drive. LG made the Bluray drive for the phat versions but I think $ony made their own drives for the slim.... which means they aren't interchangeable.

dbminter Posted April 9, 2011 Author Share Posted April 9, 2011 I would think a non tray loading mechanism would cause scuffs or even scratches onto a disc. Of course, Disney once claimed in one of their insufferable adverts that appear on their DVD's that Blu-Ray's are scratch resistant. Which I don't believe.
