That seems odd.  My eject key opens the tray and it stays open.  I even 
tried holding it down.  The tray stays open.  Now if I press the key 
twice, the tray opens and immediately closes.  As someone mentioned, 
that may be a keyboard problem.  Did the eject key function normally 
before you swapped the optical drives?

Unfortunately there are not too many ways you can test this without 
having a 2nd keyboard to try.

There have been discussions on this in the past.  There was no 
definitive answer.  I choose to install OS X on the new drive.  My logic 
was that if I really messed up, I could wipe the drive and start all 
over again, since I would have OS 9 on another disk.  Also, if one of 
the hard drives went bad, I would still have an OS on the other drive.
