ODDLocker

ODDLocker is a small, handy application that locks the door of the selected CD/DVD/BluRay drives. It can detect when the operating system resumes from suspended state and lock the drives automatically. It's useful if you have a poorly designed laptop (e.g. Levono T420) with a big drive opener button on the wrongest place, and you want to avoid opening the drive accidentally.

Features

Optical drive door locking/unlocking
Automatic locking after resume from suspend
Open drive door without unlocking
Start automatically with the operating system

Love the design, but it won't lock my drive in windows 8. ... Locks drive now, but won't unlock or eject it.
