first of all you need to import a interop service it's

   [DllImport("winmm.dll", EntryPoint = "mciSendStringA", CharSet = CharSet.Ansi)]

after importing it add the namespace using System.Runtime.InteropServices; , then add this code to eject CD/DVD Drive

            int ret = mciSendString("set cdaudio door open", null, 0, IntPtr.Zero);

now to close CD/DVD Drive use this code
