Sega Saturn laser "dies" after warm up?

[relo]

I think my model 1 saturn has an heat issue, when I play if for longer than +-30 minutes the load times become longer (or almost slow to a stop), starts having problems reading discs and gets hot on the PSU side. I've also noticed it getting a harder time reading audio (and trying to read the audio again/restart audio after if failing) as he is on for longer, and it doesn't have the rolling bars when booting after warmup.

It there a simple solution/easy mod for this? And what could be the cause (apart from, the likely, heat)?
