Caring for Drive Media
Ä
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to drive media:
■
Do not open the metal shutter of a diskette or touch the disk
within the diskette case.
■
Do not expose a disk or diskette to a strong magnetic field, such
as the security field used by a walk-through security device or a
handheld security wand.
■
Clean a CD or DVD only with a disc cleaning kit. Disc cleaning
kits are available from most electronics retailers.
Finding More Drive Software Information
All the software you need to play, create, or copy to or from drive
media, including all the types of CDs and DVDs supported by the
notebook, is included with the notebook.
In addition, you can use security utilities to disable or partially
disable most drives. A MultiBoot feature enables advanced users
to set the notebook to start from a specified medium or device.
