Disc Loading Mechanism

The hp dvd-writer dvd100i drive has a tray mechanism. The tray incorporates a dust seal so that dust does not enter from the front bezel.

There is a locking mechanism on the tray such that when power is off and the tray is closed, the tray will be locked in a closed position. However, this locking mechanism has a manual override (see Emergency Ejection on page 46).
