DVD does not recognized disks anymore

[Al Sparks]

Sounds like hardware.  I recently had a problem with my CD/DVD drive
and it was a new one.  I was annoyed that I'd have to go through the
motions of returning it.  It was acting wacky, sometimes working,
sometimes not.

I did have an older spare CD drive, so I opened the case and was about
to remove the drive when I noticed the power cable connector to the
drive was loose.  The problem disappeared upon boot up.
