THE
OPTICAL
DRIVE
Your computer may come with an optical drive. This drive is located on the
front panel of your computer. The drive allows you to play all common CD,
DVDs, and optionally Blu-ray discs. You may also save information and
create your own CDs or DVDs with appropriate software and special
writable discs (e.g by using a CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R or DVD-RW).
Optical discs are compact, lightweight and easy to carry around. However,
they are delicate and must be handled with care.
