Using a CD-ROM Drive
Some PC models have a preinstalled CD-ROM drive. CD-ROM (compact disc
read-only memory) technology offers quick access to enormous amounts of
information. A compact disc can store more than 650 MB of data, such as the large
files needed for audio, still and full-motion video, and still and animated graphics.
A CD-ROM drive can play back or read from a CD, but it cannot write information
to it. CD-ROM drives use industry-standard, 12 cm (4.75-inch) CDs.
Follow these guidelines when using a CD-ROM drive:
Ÿ
Do not place the drive where there is:
– High temperature
– High humidity
– Excessive dust
– Excessive vibration or sudden shock
– An inclined surface
– Direct sunlight
Ÿ
Do not insert any object other than a CD into the drive.
Ÿ
Before moving the computer, remove the CD from the drive.
The following is an illustration of the front bezel of the CD-ROM drive preinstalled
in some PC models.

Wiping the CD in a circular direction might cause loss of data.
Ÿ

Ÿ
