I have taken two of these apart and installed new logic board. When trying to move stuff around I found if you take the attaching screws off the grey drive housing you can feed the DVD power cable out. ( just remove the screws not the grey brackets) Be sure practice safe Static Charge discipline. (don't Zap it)

I looked at mine and the cable runs past the grey holder and under the motherboard right where the SATA cable plugs into the motherboard. Consider putting a new tip on the old cable, the connectors used to just push into the plug.
