Mine is long enough that at full length the weird black thing on the end is hanging out the front. Have you tried (very gently) tugging on it to make sure it's as far out as it will go? If it seems to be, then it may be stuck on something. I recently bought a SCSI CD-R to put in that spot (anybody know if there's a bezel for that?) and don't anticipage any problems.
