CD Emergency Eject
If you need to manually eject a CD/DVD (e.g. due to an unexpected power interruption)
you may push the end of a straightened paper clip into the emergency eject hole.
Do not use a sharpened pencil or similar object that may break and become lodged
in the hole.
Media Warning
Don’t try to remove a floppy disk/CD/DVD while the system is accessing it. This may
cause the system to “crash.”
