Using Your CD and DVD Drives
Your computer can come with several types of CD or DVD drives that allow you to do
different tasks. What you can do depends on what kind of drive you have.
The combination (combo) drive is available on select models only. It combines the functions
of two drives into one: either a DVD+RW/+R drive (DVD writer) and a CD-RW drive
(CD writer), or a DVD-ROM drive and a CD-RW drive.
Handling CDs and DVDs
To avoid damaging a disc, follow these guidelines:
Return the disc to the case when you are finished using it.
Handle the disc by its outside edges or center hole only.
Do not touch the unlabeled side of a disc or place the unlabeled side down on your
desk. Doing so could scratch the surface of the disc.
Store discs at room temperature.
