Mine still works, bought it used in 2009, it has around 10 years of use. Even if it breaks, a new optical unit is around 15 dollars. On my PS1, the plastic piece that hold the CD broke and I ended up buying the entire optical unit simply because it was 10 bucks, the plastic piece costs 5 and I at least have a second one now.
Also, affirming that ALL PS2 units broke is a bit of a stretch. Most people didn't had problems. The reason why MS got a lot of hate because of the RROD it's because almost half of the units broke. That alone probably avoided that they crushed the PS3 completely, since they ony fixed it with the Jasper units, when Sony also fixed their hugely stupid idea that people would pay 600 bucks on a console that usually ran multiplats worse than the 300 bucks competitor.
