Uh-oh, Xbox One is getting some little trouble, particularly in its disc drive.

According to CNET, a small number of Xbox One owners are reporting problems about the disc drives.

Commenting via the Neowin and NeoGAF forums as well as other sites, users say the console makes a clicking or grinding noise after a disc is inserted and then just stops right there or spits the disc out. Either way, the console is seemingly unable to read the disc.
A few Xbox One owners have posted videos to YouTube that display the problem. One user who who dubbed his post "Redmond, we might have a problem," served up links to videos from four different people who demonstrated the glitchy disc drive.
So far, only a relatively small number of people seem to have reported the issue online. And manufacturing defects aren't unusual for a new product, assuming they affect just a minor percentage of units. Many buyers of Sony's PlayStation 4 have complained about units that crash, fail to boot up, or display a flashing blue light instead of video. Sony called those "isolated incidents" within its expectations for a new product launch.

So the PS4 gets the problem of the blue light of death, now Xbox One gets the disc drive dilemma. My thoughts on this? Let's just hope that the Xbox One we all get don't end up like the ones reported here. As the article says and as what many people I know say, there's ALWAYS going to be a problem at launches. Underneath the blazing glory of a million-selling consoles, there's minor problems occurring. Let's all hope Microsoft and Sony can solve the problems that may be waiting for other consoles out there.

So for those who own an Xbox One, have you suffered from this? And for those who are about to get one, worried you'll be suffering from this

I'm blessed I didn't have any major issues. Hopefully Microsoft will have those issues ironed out soon. I'm loving my new system :D
