physically disassembling the drive. I had to use this method to clean the lens on a dvd player in our living room twice. Note to everyone: If you have any devices that require optics to operate, don't let anyone smoke near them. I got cigarette smoke soot off of the lens.

as for your cleaning disc, did it come with a solution of some kind to add to it? If something sticky (such as soot) is on the lens, a dry wipe won't help.
