CD/DVD DRIVE WORKS OCCASIONALLY

Hi 

I have a Dell Inspiron N5110 and upgraded to Windows 8.1 Pro and ever since I realize that my CD/DVD drive works sometimes.  At times it would not even open until I open Itunes or any music program.  Sometimes it even clicks or boots when Im not using it.  

An advise on how to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.
