Toshiba M2 Tecra - How To Remove DVD Drive?

I'm trying to repair a broken DC input jack on a Toshiba M2-S730.

I followed the directions here to disassemble: http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/ToshibaM2/tecra_M2_disassembly_1.htm

Unfortunately, I can't seem to remove the DVD drive. I can easily pull it out about 1/8", but after that there is resistance. Is there a hidden screw somewhere I have to remove first? The directions in the link make it look like it should just slide out...

-Thanks

 

The mystery is solved This is probably obvious if you know these machines, but there is a sliding bay "lock" control that must be held down while removing the drive. It’s secured by a nearby screw, and the control won’t operate until that screw is taken out [removing this screw was somehow omitted from the irisvista.com directions ].

The lock is on the bottom center of the case, right above the docking interface. It looks like a flat slide switch, and is marked with an unlocked padlock symbol.

BTW, I was actually able to repair the dc power jack itself rather than replacing it. It takes some patience, good tools and soldering skills, but when you are finished you will have a part that is potentially stronger than new, and save up to $30+ in the process.

The jack has a little arrow molded into the back cover. Pry/slide the back cover off in the direction opposite the arrow (away from the harness). If you’re lucky you will see a break where the 2 red wires are crimped onto the center power pin assembly. This break can be "jumped" with bus wire, then carefully soldered (I used 3 separate jumpers of #22 gauge wire for strength).
