Optical drive for M-1 MacBook Pro

Can't eject disc from optical drive. Looked up options online and either solution doesn't apply or doesn't work.

Appreciate any help.

Thank you

you didn't say which options you've tried, so apologies if you've already tried this.


you can shut the Mac down. then use the power button to turn it back on. after pressing the power button, press and hold the mouse button, (or the equivalent on a MacBook) until the disc ejects.
