Question

My Disk drive has sropped responding.

My disc (CD/DVD) drive has stopped working. It won't "suck in" a disc, nor does my mac reflect the presence of a burner.

any ideas on troubleshooting this?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

It's probably failed. You can take it into your local Apple Store and have them diagnose the problem and give you an estimate to repair it - probably with a new SuperDrive. If it is the drive, you can actually replace it yourself by ordering one from OWC - not that expensive and easily replaced.

Good luck,

Clinton

Well you can try resetting PRAM

if not try resetting SMC

Short of that, take it in for repair.
