ABSTRACT:
An optical disk drive includes a base for holding an optical disk, a protrusion protruding out from the base that extends through the center hole of the optical disk when holding the optical disk, and at least one hook rotatably installed on the protrusion. When the disk drive stops, the hook is retracted to within the edge of the protrusion and when disk is rotated up to a predetermined speed, the hook extends out from the edge of the protrusion to hook the optical disk.
