My PS4 Slim doesn’t accept any discs I put in it. It doesn’t even try to suck it in and doesn’t read it when I manually put it in. I checked all the ribbon cables in the back, they’re all fine. When I push the eject button, it makes the sound that indicates that there is no disc in the optical drive. Any ideas on what might be the problem? I already tried a lot to make it work. Should I just buy a new optical drive?
Is this a good question?

As these drives are not really repairable, you would be better off replacing the Blu-Ray drive rather than reparing it.
you can buy a replacement on eBay or new-egg

I just had a similar issue on a PS4 Slim, turned out to be dirt jamming up the grooves in the disc roller gears, it was causing the rollers to be sluggish and skip a little but ultimately didn’t have the torque to fully pull the disc in or eject it once forced in, this would also prevent the disc from settling all the way in so that the drive could properly read it. Once I cleaned out the gear connected to the rollers and carefully used a small jewelers flathead screwdriver and a nylon brush to clean the other two gears it works like new. Hope this helps others with this issue.
