All they did was wipe the drives head. 2 minutes with some Isopropanol and a cotton bud will do it better.

Yep. Anyone who follows me on Twitter will see I acquired a really crusty A600 in the week. The final problem was the drive not working properly (games were crashing when trying to load). Took it apart and cleaned the heads (which were the dirtiest I've ever seen) with ISP. Now works as good as new!
