Well , I did that , but people are saying my DVD Drive tray is unstable. How do I fix that problem?

when you read the issues addressed in the link did you notice "The disc spins very close to the pickup and the tray does not prevent the disc from reaching the laser pickup. If you are experiencing scratched discs without moving your console you should contact 1-800-4MYXBOX for warranty support from Microsoft." there is no real fix out there other than something like the foam block suggested with the above link. Of course you could try a new optical drive, just remember that a new one is tricky to install since it most likely will have to be flashed, or the PCB changed.
