Dreamcast Disc Drive failure - Shall I just get GDEMU from AliExpress?

Hi,

So I have tried to revive my old dreamcast, first it was the controller PCB issue, then turns out it was my controller so I ordered a new one. Now I have found out that the disc drive will not read any game I have, I have tried all the various solutions on YT such as turning the screw slighty and cleaning the drive, but no joy.

Is my only option to get a GDEMU?
