The thinwiki solution works for me:
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_hotswap_UltraBay_devices

To dock, echo 0 0 0 > /sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan (or whatever
host number your DVD drive is).
To undock, echo 1 > /sys/class/scsi_device/1:0:0:0/device/delete ("1"
corresponds to host"1" above").

This undock solution still leads to a crash during suspend/hibernate.
To get around that,
remove the dock and run the dock command. You effectively scan for a
non-existent device but it allows suspend/hibernate.
