[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1428782, member: 56379"] These are actually pretty easy to open. There are access screws on the bottom...to remove the panel with the "rubberized" coating on it (I've done it a bunch of times). Go to ifixit.com. They have assembly/disassembly procedures with photos that make the process much easier!:) Some procedures are more involved than others...but you can do it...if you're properly motivated...or if you're already good with DIY projects like this.;) Powerbookmedic.com is one place to purchase new or used DVD drives. - Nick [/QUOTE]
