My PS3's Blu-ray reader was constantly stopping and accelerating when playing certain games (Red Dead Redemption).
I don't know if my unit was slightly faulty or it was standard behavior. Why not just let the disc run at full speed instead of constantly changing its speed and annoying the user with those sounds?
I don't care about fan noise, because it's constant, but noise coming from a disc reader constantly stopping and accelerating is annoying.
- kuschku 6y agoBecause the game repeatedly seeks data from the outside of the disk, and the inside of the disk. Reading the innermost ring takes a mcuh slower speed than the outermost ring, so these speed changes are what you're hearing.
- young_unixer 6y agoThat makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.
