Good evening all,

Hope you are all well.

Wonder if anyone here can help me with a small problem.

I have a Sony Vaio VGN-S2XP which is out of warrenty.
Unfortunatetly the Cd/DVD drive has packed out and does not work at all.

Can anyone tell me the model number of a suitable replacement drive for this model and any recommendations where I can buy one from prefabaly in the UK.

Thanks for your help.

Jay

Hi mistryjayesh and welcome to ClubVAIO.

There are three different Matshita drives fitted to the S2XP Vaios.

If you want a direct replacement, I would order one from the US HERE. They do ship to the UK.

If you want one from the UK, have a look here - PC World - it should fit OK.

Sometimes there can be a problem fitting the Vaio faceplate to a drive of a different make and I would check this is possible on your model.
