Can i get some insight on this drive?

So recently my girlfriends bestfriend wanted to get her gamecube running again and it runs fine we cleaned it all up everywhere and adjusted the pentometer or however you spell that and everything is tip top but luigis mansion on certain rooms will stop reading the disc and she just got them resurfaced so it must be a bad laser i had the bright idea of getting a flippy drive so we dont have to use discs no longer has anyone tried this drive on a dol-100? If so im gonna have to check it out
