CD drive vibrates on some disks


I'am loading all my CD's to an external HD using an external disk drive to my laptop. On some CD's the drive will grind and shake. Any idea how to avoid this? Is the hole off center on the CD? Will it affect the loading at all? Sometimes it seems as if the drive will shake itself to pieces.
Thanks in advance,
JD

How do they perform in other CD players? I would first suspect the external drive has an issue, since it was probably designed for data, they manufacturer probably wasn't too concerned about drive balance.Also you may try reloading the disc and try to rotate 180degrees when you place it in the drive tray.
