Don't do anything. I Just change the device position from horizontal to vertical and the problem simply solved. Try it first and then try other ways.

My fix it is quite crude and may cause further damage if not done properly. The way I fixed mine is the same as I've done since PS2. (Try at your own risk) Remove disc, lift the left corner of the PS (where the disc drive is located) about 4/5 inches. Then, let it drop. Do this once or twice, insert disc and listen to hear if the PS hums or clicks. If it hums, it's ready, if not you could try it again or go another route.

"You say it’s a new drive. As it says elsewhere on this site “Be aware that the optical drive is ""married"" to the motherboard. If you need to replace your optical drive you must remove the motherboard on the original optical drive and install it on the drive you intend to install in your PS4. “

So: If you didn’t and have thrown the old drive away, then it’s not going to work. If you still have the old drive, try transferring the old drives motherboard to the new one"

Every time I put The Crew 2 disc it always says Unrecognized Disc even tried to turn it off and back on. Any tips?
