Using an optional external optical drive (select models
only)
An external optical drive connects to a USB port on the computer and enables you to use optical discs
(CDs and DVDs). The computer provides one powered USB port on the left side of the computer. This
port provides power to the external optical drive when used with a powered USB cable. An external
optical drive connected to the other USB port on the computer must be connected to AC power.
An external optical drive, such as a DVD-ROM drive, supports optical discs (CDs and DVDs). These
discs store or transport information and play music and movies. DVDs have a higher storage capacity
than CDs.
All optical drives can read from optical discs and some drives can also write to optical discs as described
in the following table.
