    Many people have this problem and the only way of getting it fixed is to pay 80 euro and let microsoft get their hands on it!!....nah!!.....I had this problem and i thought all hope was lost. My console wouldnt read disks, i just got a grinding noise from the console. The problem is that in the disc drive their is a small magnet keeping the disc on the spindal but after long term use this magnet comes lose and sticks to the roof of the disc drive. This will cause the disc to slip of the spindal while it begins to move and therefore the console will be unable to read the disc.
    To fix this problem what you need to do is simply open up your 360 console and the disc drive and glue the magnet back onto the top of the spindal, be careful not to spill any glue on any of the electric components. Once this has been done close the baby up and play! If your xbox is less then a year old do not attempt this as your console is still in waranty with microsoft and can be replaced free of charge!
