Due to a blackout, power is no longer coming from the wall outlet, and your computer is now off. You do not have a UPS, and you need to remove a disc out of the DVD drive. What is the easiest method for retrieving the disc

b. Push an unbent paper clip into the hole on the front of the drive.

Explanation:

Computer DVD drives come with a hole in front of them that is not too much larger than a pin's diameter. It is called an Emergency Eject Hole.

If you find that you need to retrieve a disk and the computer is off, find an unbent paper clip and push it into that hole. The DVD drive should open up thus enabling you to retrieve your disk.
