    I am in the process of getting a CF 30. I plan on modifying a CF51/CF52 DVD.
    I am curious as to how you get the drive out without having the handle on the drive like the real CF30 drives have?

    I just eject the tray and pull, lol. When I had this setup in my Mk1 I only had it come loose after a hit from the side. Customs are never easy with stuff.

    I have one fitted.
    Just remove the Plastic bit that catches on the back and you`re away.
    (ended up buying a CF-30 DVDRW drive soon after though..!)
