No I don't think so, I have a original 40 gig , about 3 years old, I own 32 PS3 games I play a lot, I watch DVDs on it as my main player, I watch bluray dvds on it, I at times use the internet on it, Never a problem. I would say about 5-6 hours a day on the small side for use with my PS3, My 9 year old son plays the crap out of it also, atleast 6 hrs a day for 3 years with never a problem, that whole time I have only seen 2 game freezes, its been a great great console, out of the 25 plus people i know with a PS3 only 1 had a dvd drive failure, thats it. ( I did not mean my 9 year old plays 6 hrs a day, with all uses atleast 6 hrs a day from everyone on average )
