Eject button—Press to release the disc tray.
Do not press the eject button or turn off the computer while the drive
in-use indicator light is glowing. Doing so could damage the disc or
the drive.
When the disc tray is open, be careful not to touch the lens or the
area around it. Doing so could cause the drive to malfunction.
Manual eject hole—Use if you need to release the disc tray when
the power is off. Use a straightened paper clip or other narrow
object to press the manual eject button located inside the hole.
Never use a pencil to press the manual eject button. Pencil lead can

If your computer comes with a solid state drive (SSD) (available on certain
models), under certain unusual conditions of prolonged non-use and/or
exposure to high temperatures, your SSD may be vulnerable to data
retention errors.
