Securing a disc in a vertically mounted drive

Manually ejecting a disc

If you press the Eject button and the tray does not slide out, turn off the computer and straighten a large paper clip to form a tool, as shown in the illustration. The straightened end must extend at least 45 mm (1.8 in.). Insert the extended end into the manual-eject hole on the front of the drive. Push the paper clip until the tray opens. Gently pull out the tray until you can remove the disc.
