I like to use the curved or straight pick from the Harbor Freight pick set, depending on which one I grab.
If the SCM card is being stubborn I've had it bend the tool on the back of the front panel.

The cover plate is a board puller, FYI.

There's a metal tab on the backside of the board cover faceplate (the one with the Speaker).? If you turn it around, you can slip it in to a groove at the bottom front underside of the SCM and WL PCBs.? By firmly grasping the hooked faceplate, you can get enough grip to pull the board straight out from it's socket.? Don't try to lever or bend it, just pull straight out.

Captive metal levers like the old minicomputers had would have been better, but this is a decent have-it-in-hand solution.? You can almost get enough grip on the board to pull it with your fingers as-is, but there is really no good spot to grip it from.? This hook solves the grip issue.
