When my ps2 DRE'd it didn't make any eird noises, but it only read 3 games out of around 20, and when it couldn't read a game the screen went dark and it said "disc read error" (i think, but it was so long ago)

 Chances are thos three were either CD-based games or DVD-based games.  Probably the former, given how few games were made on CDs.

When my ps2 started getting DREs a few years ago, it would only read one or the other.  CDs, I think.  I'm pretty sure watching too many DVDs killed it.
