drutil: Eject a disk from the drive.
$ drutil eject
try on your machine

The command "drutil eject" is a Unix command used to eject optical media (such as CDs or DVDs) from a computer's optical drive.

When you run the "drutil eject" command on a Unix-based system, it sends a signal to the optical drive, instructing it to open and eject any currently inserted disc. This can be useful when you want to remove a disc from your computer, whether it has finished playing, you want to change it, or you need to repair or clean the drive.
