Claim:
A disk drive comprising: a housing; a tray disposed in the housing; and an ejecting mechanism disposed at the housing including: a tray ejecting button disposed in the housing; and a front cover having a first through hole and a sliding key, wherein the position of the first through hole corresponds to that of the tray ejecting button, and the sliding key includes: a pressing body exposed outside the housing; a triggering body connected to one end of the pressing body and passing through the first through hole; and a resilient element connected to the pressing body and the front cover, wherein when the pressing body drives the triggering body to slide along the first through hole until the triggering body aligns to the tray ejecting button, the resilient element is deformed and stores elastic potential energy; wherein when the triggering body aligns to the tray ejecting button, the pressing body is capable of being forced to drive one end of the triggering body to trigger the tray ejecting button to eject the tray.
