In this video I attempt to repair a broken PS4 Gen 1 or PS4 First Generation. I got this PS4 for about $100 off Mercari and it has a broken Blu-Ray drive.
The PS4 broken blue ray drive issue can be due to a variety of problems ranging from a bad blu ray sensor, broken motors, clogged parts and many more. I bought this to specifically play Horizon Forbidden West..and soon, God Of War Ragnarok on November 10th. I will also do a video on God Of War Ragnarok Running on a PS4 Gen 1, God Of War Ragnarok PlayStation 4, God Of War Ragnarok PS4 1st Gen, God Of War Ragnarok PS4 1st Generation. etc
The Playstation 4 blu-ray issue effects mostly older models of the older PS4 models like this one, alongside the dreaded PS4 HDMI issue or PS4 HDMI port failure issue where the inbuilt hdmi port would not output video and requires replacement. I will not be doing a ps4 hdmi replacement video as this ps4's hdmi port is just fine. Another issue that older PS4's like this face are the PS4 blue screen of death issue and the ps4 power supply failure issue which requires a ps4 power supply replacement.
So, in this PS4 repair video, I will attempt to fix the ps4's blu ray drive and get it working again but even if I cant fix it, I can still play digital games off the hard drive.
