The superdrive on my 2010 Mac Mini also died without warning. I bought an auxillary drive which has no problems playing DVDs or reading software installation discs but gets all jittery when I try to play music discs. The disc appears on iTunes but when I try to play it it immediately self ejects. I also can't copy tunes from the disc; same problem. The workaround is to insert the disc into my back-up Mini (not even Intel) and copy the songs onto a memory stick, then bring that over and plug it into my 2010 -- those will then play from the stick. Grrr.
My Mac Mini is having the same problem. It won't read CDs or Dvds not even burning them. I had it for I think around three years or four. The problem just started to happen two years ago and I'm not even sure if I should take it in to be looked at or something. I truly hoped that it's not broken.
