CD removal

[returntosender]

How do I get a CD out of a dead computer? This one doesn't have a hole in the front of the cd player.
Thank you

Can the drive itself be removed and put into another computer?

If your computer is no good, and it does not matter if it is disassemble , then just take it apart.

Search "open dead cd player" on youtube.

Ideally I would take the drive out and put it in my active computer but I am not up to it so I was hoping for a 5 minute fix.
Thank you all for your time. I will check utube.

Far as I know pulling the CD drive out and putting it in another device is a 5 minute fix. Based on my experience, they can literally be pulled out just using your thumb and forefinger.

You are a better man then me.

Who me? I found that out by accident. Now that was from a laptop. Pulling one from a desktop unit would be more complicated. I'd need to watch one or more how to videos for that.
