How to remove the drive of DVD of Tecra M3

Have an old Tecra M3 which works, but had a defective CPU fan.

Have managed to get and replace the fan, I came across a problem annoying when disassembly of the case.
I could not for the life of get out me the DVD drive. According to everything I read the disc should come out just, but he wouldn't.

I couldn't find anything (like a button or a screw) that it locked in.

Anyone able to point me in the right direction (today more interest than anything else)?

See you soon...

Hello

The ODD on Tecra M3 is fixed with a screw on the lower side of the laptop. You must remove this screw first before you can remove the ODD.

Underside, there is a latch to remove the ODD. To remove first the screw next to the latch, then slide the battery bay latch, then you are able to remove the ODD.

Check this box!

  • How to remove the drive from the computer

    We put in a music disk down load muisc

    Hi House wife.

    You should be able to press an eject button on the drive itself.

    There is also a small hole on the front of the car you should be able to insert a paper clip straightened, which should eject the disc.

    Also, you may be able to right click on the drive in Windows, computer and select "Eject". Chris

    I think the disk replacement procedure is very similar to replacements on other laptops.
    To remove the STRANGE bay module follow these steps:

    1. turn the computer.
    2. remove the black binding screws.
    3 turn the computer over and open the display.
    4. push the module bay ODD.

    All that s. It s not achieved with a screw.

    Hello

    It's very strange that you can not remove the optical drive as DVD - ROM drive Assembly is secured with just a screw on the underside. If the screw is removed, you just pull all of the DVD-ROM drive.

    There is no other screws.

    So the HARD drive Bay cover must be removed to access this screw procedure is not really difficult, so you should be able to remove it easily.

    Or

    2.) HARD drive is placed in the Notepad. In this case you will need to Remover the keyboard and some covers to replace the HARD drive

    Hi Tim,.

    The hard drive on your SA30 is in the optical drive, but slide the optical drive out of its housing (undo the F5 marked screws on the bottom of the laptop).

    The hard drive will be visible fixed with four Phillips head screws that need to be removed (two on each side of the hard drive. With the removed screws, gently slide the hard drive toward the front of the laptop to disconnect its connector and carefully pull it out of its Bay.
