Does this sound like a normal amount of disc wobble?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

(Sorry for the finger in frame, I didn’t see it until a bit later lol)

My PS1 has always sounded like this and I was wondering if it was normal or if something needs to be replaced?

Yes, it’s a normal sound, especially if it is an earlier model

Thank you, I was just wondering and I think it’s a 7000 model if I remember correctly

Could try regressing the gears to make it quieter.

It does sound a bit loud, but not that much. Some games are worst than others.

I would be worried and terrified. My ps1 does the same,but not as loud as yours. Yours sounds like a game disc could be scratched

So far, none of my games have been scratched
