Optical drive

Your computer may come with a CD-ROM, DVD-ROM or a combo DVD/
CD-RW drive.  This drive is located on the front panel of your 
computer.  The CD-ROM drive allows you to play different types of 
compact discs (CDs). The DVD-ROM drive allows you to play not only 
old CD-ROMs, CD-I discs, and video CDs, but digital video discs (DVDs) 
as well.  DVD or DVD-ROM is a type of disc media that holds a 
minimum of 4.7-GB (gigabytes), enough for a full-length movie.  The  
CD-RW drive allows you to record or burn CD-RW (recordable and 
rewritable) discs.

CDs and DVDs, like diskettes, are also compact, lightweight, and easy 
to carry around.  However, they are more delicate than diskettes and 
must be handled with extra care.

To insert a CD or DVD into your computer’s CD-ROM or DVD drive:

1

Gently push the Eject button located on the front panel.
