Well it seems my trusty Plextor DVD-RW has gone on the fritz, not reading discs reliably. Can the tracking on these things be adjusted? I know it's hardly worth it, but I really like these Plextor drives.
 
To my knowledge I don't think theres any adjustment in optical drives, just eject button. Pull it apart and make a laser pointer and buy a new drive. :)

You can usually get from most places like Newsagent , Walmart, Tandy, RadioShack or equivalent
