Huh?  I had no idea the front plate on the drive can be removed !

How?  Does it slide off or does it need to be pried off... i.e. glue is holding it on ?

Please clarify.

Someone that I work with is having the same problem on their 1.42 GHz MDD.

They couldn't get it to eject properly in either optical bay.  He is thinking of using tin snips to square-off the upper corners.
