2012 Macbook Pro had a physical CD eject button (it was top-right of the keyboard). Control was probably routed through the OS, so that may not be what you mean

- dev_tty01 3y agoI saw a sales droid demoing a Mac at Comp USA years ago. That model had the manual eject/inject button underneath the CD tray because in normal use you never needed to push the button. To eject you drag it to the trash on screen. To inject, you just push on the tray a bit and it detects that and pulls it in. The sales droid was talking about how stupid it was to have the button there because it was blocked by the tray, never realizing that he just needed to push on the tray a bit. Ugh.
- Reason077 3y agoOh yeah, Macs had that eject button for years. Until pretty late in the Intel era, IIRC. But you could “eject” (unmount) anything with it, disk images etc. It wasn’t hardwired to any particular drive.
