How to remove a CD/DVD when the disc tray will not open

Pressing the eject button will not open the disc tray when the computer is
turned off although, in these circumstances, you can open the tray by
inserting a slender object such as a straightened paper clip about 15mm
into the eject hole just to the right of the drive's eject button.

You must ensure that you turn off the power before you use the eject hole.
If the CD/DVD media is spinning when you open the disc tray, it may fly off
of the spindle and cause injury.
The optical drive installed on this computer cannot write multiple sessions
on DVD-R Dual Layer disc sessions. Once a disc has been written to once,
it will be finalized. Once finalized, no further writing to the disc will be
possible regardless of what portion of the total disc capacity was used.
