CD-ROM/DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive
Your computer may come with a CD-ROM, DVD-ROM or a 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 new 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. It may eventually replace
CD-ROMs, as well as VHS video cassettes and laser discs. The CD-RW
drive allows you to record or burn CD-RW (recordable or rewritable)
discs.
CDs and DVDs, like diskettes, are compact, lightweight, and easy to
carry around. However, they are more delicate than diskettes and
must be handled with extra care. Here are some tips on how to take
care of your CDs and DVDs:
•
Keep your discs in a disk case when not in use to avoid scratches or
other damage. Any kind of dirt or damage can affect the data on
the disc, impair the disc lens reader on the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM/
CD-RW drive, or stop the computer from successfully reading the
disc.
•
When handling discs, always hold them by the edges to avoid
smudges or fingerprints.
•
When cleaning discs, use a clean, dust-free cloth and wipe in a
straight line from the center to the edge. Do not wipe in a circular
motion.
•
Clean your CD-ROM/DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive regularly. You may
refer to the cleaning kit for instructions. Cleaning kits can be
purchased in any computer or electronics shop.
