Macbook Eject Mechanism

Many people seem to be jamming whatever they can find (paper clips, cards, pliers, knifes, etc) into slot loading drives to get stuck disks out.

I recommend disassembling the drive to properly remove the disk. But for those who won't, this video shows the eject mechanism.

Hope this helps some people.

From an early 2008 MBP.
