A "friend of mine" had the same thing happen to the Optical, and after much deliberation, the verdict was that we had two choices: (a) Pack up the machine and send it to them, and they would replace the drive for us for $1500, or (b) Send a representative to take their technical school, after which they would sell us the part to replace ourselves for only $500.
