My last two cdrom drives have demised by the tray not
staying in (it just pops out again). From where I sit, the
button is underneath the tray, so I just push the tray in.
Then the other day I pushed the tray in and it popped back
out again. On riffling through my hardware stash, I found
the last cdrom drive with a note "tray won't stay in". So
this has happened to 2 drives. I only use them very
occassionally, I'd expect I've had less than 50 insertions
on the last drive, which might be 2-3yrs old.
Is this just one of those things, or does pushing the tray
in damage the cdrom?
Thanks Joe
