Do modded Saturns break easily?

		One guy on another forum I'm on told me that his Saturn broke due to it being modded...I know its just one guy telling me that...but does modding a Saturn cause more stress/wear on the laser or whatever to cause it to break faster than normal? I'm looking to buy a pre-modded Saturn...no way I'm attmepting to mod my Model 1 Saturn...i bought that one on release day for 400.00...lolol.

		Not sure if there is any truth to that. I modded mine quite a few years ago and it still works just fine. He probably shouldn't shower with his saturn.

		The mod itself (assuming a proper install) doesn't do anything bad to the Saturn, but using cheap/poorly-burned discs can cause additional wear on any CD reader, especially those that were designed and made before CD-R was a common technology. Most likely the guy had a Saturn that was already on its last legs, and trying to get it reading some crappy CD-Rs knocked it over.
