How to stop DVD drive from spinning?
I was using Hamster Free Burning Studio to burn a DVD, on the first run it crashed. But my DVD is still spinning inside my laptop. Is there any non-physical (so no paper clip in the tiny hole method) ways to stop this?
I tried long-press the eject button, I've also tried running the software again and pressing the eject button within the software.

You could temporarily disable the drive in device manager...
Right-click / disable
Then re-enable it after a minute.
