Title:

Can I diagnose a drive beyond simply tearing the console down?

Text:

My Wii toppled and while it would restart, it wouldn't read any disks. I used the procedure elsewhere in this site to disassemble the unit down to the drive, but I don't see any obvious problems. I'm assuming the drive itself is the problem (duh!).

I've seen parts from drives for sale so I assume someone's taken it further than I have, but I am at a loss to figure out how to diagnose and fix the problem at the stage I'm at. Where do I go from here?

Thanks in advance,

Jon
