Hi guys,

I am using the flat Apple cable-keyboard withe eject-CD key above backspace. Since I am using a lot of software that uses the backspace key, I often accidentally hit the eject key. What happens: The CD door opens up.

However, since I am using a Fractal R4 case with a (closed) door, the CD-Drive then pushes agains the shut door - which probably isn't good for neither the CD Drive nor the door.

I've been searching the web for solutions to disable the eject key, but no luck so far. The closest I got was the 'Karabiner' app that allows you to configurate your keyboard freely. However, it's not running on Sierra.

Any suggestions?

This is driving me nuts. It happens like 3x in a normal workday.
 
yeh I also want top know it ! its just annoying when coding and accidentally hitting eject:)
 
Same for me... Quite annoying.
Has anyone spotted a solution yet?
 
Seriously, this is the only solution I've found. I used Karabiner Elements to make F6 the Eject, but no way now to disable the original Eject.
