Horrible Grinding Noise When Playing DVDs

This Blu-Ray burner is only three years old and it has started making a horrible grinding noise as it plays DVDs. Removing and reloading the DVD does not help. If I cant fix it Ill have to replace it because its so loud it distracts from the show.

Not sure if its quality issue most of my CDs known good cannot be read by this device. I have a windows 10 machine and other CD players work fine.

This drive will not update and stopped working when I upgraded to windows 10. Its the last LG product Ill ever purchase as its the 3rd LG drive Ive owned to fail due to software update. No support what so ever because of the drives age. Why purchase from a company that doesnt stand behind their products in anyway?

Failed to burn Blu-Ray

I purchased this model back in 2014 and just now I tried to use it as a bluray burner for the first time but it failed.
I tried both Nero and Power2go but no use I tried to update the firmware from 1.01 to 1.03 tried to burn with 4x speed even though the discs BD-R 25GB I have support 6x. I tried everything I sent the error log file to Nero for inspection but it seems from their reply that the problem not from the software nor from the 3 discs I tried to burn my files. CD and DVD burner works just fine.
FYR: The Blu-Ray disc I purchased from newegg: BD-R PlexDisc 6X 25GB 50 Discs.
I do not recommended LG brand for Bluray burner at least I will purchase Asus model even though it is more expensive.

bought it 3 months ago and it started burning intermittently. Tried to get it repaired under warranty but LG wouldnt stand behind their product since I didnt buy from a certain seller.

I have always bought other brand name DVD writers. I decided to give this LG WH14NS40 a try. Ive always loved LG products and this one didnt disappoint right from the start. Installation is easy and my Windows 10.1 1870 build installed it without issue. It plays all my movies game discs and music CDs perfectly and beautifully I didnt even install any installation files to be able to use it. I did however take advantage of the few programs LG has to offer to expand my experience. And I can honestly say I couldnt be happier. I will be a continued LG fan forever. And now with my computer products as well. Thank you LG. You really do make life happier

I bought this so I could watch my bluray movies on my computer. I had it for 2 1/2 years. Got a new bluray a few days ago in the mail watched it went to watch another disk and it stopped working. I put in a different disk and it spits it out and tells me to put in a disk. Will not recognize any disk or play any disks.

Does the job but noisy.

I purchased 2 months ago. It does the job but it is very noisy and unbalanced. I thought it was my discs at first but it does not seem to matter what I put in it it is very noisy and vibrates something awful. And while its making its noise and vibrating it will not read the disk.I am very disappointed in this drive that came highly recommended. I feel the drive is not worth the material it took to make it. Sorry but that is how I feel. The worse thing is LG said they cant help me except maybe replace it with a refurbished drive. I didnt purchase a refurbished drive I purchased a new one with a new warranty not the silly 90 day warranty that comes with a refurbished drive. Very dishonest if you ask me. So unless LG can replace my drive with a new one with the full NEW DRIVE warranty I think ill buy another brand.
