    anyone else think the "standard" cd/dvd drive on the 8130 seems liked flimsy?

    It seems way too easy to accidentally eject it. Both my bro's 8130 from last year and my new one act this way.

    Just holding the laptop a certain way ejects it. I've never had nor seen a cd drive so "sensitive" or flimsy :(

    Sorry, I wouldn't know since I never had a dvd drive in there. Went for HDD bay from the start.

    Never noticed it on my P150 (same components) before i replaced the ODD. If anything it was hard to eject because of the size of the eject button. It's certainly never ejected itself just by being carried the wrong way.
