That should be fine as long the console doesn't place permanent scratches.

I'm assuming you mean that it leaves a ring and not a line, would that be more accurate?

If that is the case, the buffer between the motor assemply and disc is a hair too thick, it's rubbing off on your discs. Couple of possible fixes. You can try laying the system flat if you have it vertical. It will take some time, but eventually that material will lie down flat.

Otherwise, get a disc you don't care about and run it until it it wears off that buffer.

I suppose you could also try puling it part and fixing it manually, but I've never operated on a PS4 so I can't really recommend that in good confidence.
