A long time ago, Apple laptops had their drives as standard, but recent MacbookAir, MacbookPro, and Macbooks don't have drives.
To load CDs and DVDs, you need a separate USB drive, but there are several types of USB drives as well.
Many of the usb drives of the general-purpose type are tray type, and I think that the tray comes out when you press the eject button and put a CD, DVD on it, but the USB drive sold by Apple genuine has become suction type, The disk is still in it and it doesn't come out!I can't take it out!There are quite a lot of consultations.
If you do not recognize even if you plug the USB into the PC, it may not be energized, or the drive itself may be out of order, but if you need to remove the disc by all means, I think that you can refer to it.
Apple genuine USB drive is not used screws on the exterior, but becareful because it may scratch if you force it to force it because it is fixed inside with a powerful nail.

Apple's original USB drive is made very simple and there is no such thing as a button.
In addition, the screw is very familiar with Apple's aluminum body laptop without any exterior.
If you don't insert a rental DVD inside the drive, you'll be in a lot of trouble.
Because it is easy to make, decomposition is not so hard,
It is a good idea to check it in case.
The thing itself is completely different, but the iMac is also a suction type drive.
So it is necessary to disassemble even if the disk no longer comes out on the iMac just like a USB drive.

This is the back side, but the USB drive is disassembled from the back side.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 3]
There are no screws, but there is a gap.
As shown in the image, the tip is flat and a thin tool is inserted and disassembled.
I think that the place to insert the spatula is good anywhere, but the position of the image was easy to remove.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 4]
There is a feeling that comes off with "Kapa" when it is twisted with a spatula as shown in the image,
If there is a feeling that came off even in one place, the same work will be done on one lap.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 5]
I'm doing a round and one lap disassembly.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 6]
I think that I was able to remove the back cover like the image when I rubbed one lap.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 7]
From here, you will need a thin Phillips screwdriver and torx screwdriver, so be prepared if you do not have a tool.
Remove the screws (upper left and top right) enclosed in red circles with A Phillips screwdriver, and the lower left screw with a Torx screwdriver.

There is a small screw in the gap here, so remove it.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 9]
The black tape will be removed.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 10]
It is like this when you peel off the black tape of the previous, but if USB does not recognize it, it is also possible that it is broken.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 11]
When you can remove the screw, you can move the live itself a little like the image, but the base of the cable is still attached.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 12]
If you lift it lightly, there is a screw in the red circle part, so let's remove it.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 13]
It becomes the root of the cable, but it is attached to the body with double-sided tape.
It is possible to peel off if you use a tool as shown in the image.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 14]
It is possible to pull the root of the cable to the front from the main body, but it is not possible to completely separate it on the structure,
If you want to break down for some reason, there is no other way but to break it off.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 15]
This is how it looks when the USB drive is broken down, but if the disk is in and you want to take it out, it needs to be disassembled further.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 16]
We supply electricity in such a feeling, but it is necessary to check whether it is broken if it does not energize and does not recognize it.
If it is not cut off but does not energize, the drive itself may be out of order, so repair or replace the base.
However, since the list price of the new product has become 8800 yen (tax excluded), I feel that it is better to think about the trouble of re-purchase rather than repair.

The model number used for Apple genuine USB drive is "GX40N".
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 18]
The part model number of the drive used was GX40N, but the Model No. of the product itself is A1379.
Apple products can be certain to some extent in Model No.
For MacbookAir, A1370, A1465, A1466, A1369
For Macbook Pro, it is A1278, A1286, A1502, A1398, etc.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 19]
It is only a short time until the disk is removed.
Let's remove all screws of the red circle part using a Phillips screwdriver.
If all screws can be removed, the cover can be removed.
[Apple USB drive does not recognize, decomposition method 20]
I could see the disk that was left inside the USB drive.
Now you can take out the CD and DVD.
Summary
Apple genuine drive I think that many people are owned because it looks very cool, but it is very troublesome if the disk does not come out by any chance.
Even if you do not recognize it by any chance if it is a TRAY-type USB drive, if there is a tweezer, it is a mechanism that the tray opens just by inserting it into a small hole, but Apple's suction drive cannot cope with it.
So when you buy a USB drive, you choose by appearance, or you choose by thinking about the emergency.
Anyway, if you fail without any disc, if you can not take out in a state where the rental DVD etc. are included, there is a rental period, so you will be driven mentally.
