Variable-Speed CD-ROM Drive
Your NEC Versa notebook may ship with a 24X maximum/12X minimum variable-
speed CD-ROM drive. The CD-ROM drive is assigned an available drive letter. Use
the CD-ROM drive to load and start programs from a compact disc (CD) or to play
your audio CDs. The CD-ROM drive is fully compatible with Kodak™ multisession
Photo CD™ discs and standard audio CDs.
The CD-ROM drive operates at different speeds depending on whether the CD you are
using contains data or music. This allows you to get your data faster and to see
smoother animation and video. Note that data is read at a variable transfer rate
depending on its location. For example, the maximum rated speed is generally achieved
only when reading the outermost track on a completely filled CD.
The CD-ROM drive offers the following features.
!
Emergency Eject Hole — allows you to manually remove a disc from the CD-ROM
drive if the eject function is disabled by software or a power failure.
To remove a disc, insert the end of a paper clip into the eject hole, and push in until
you hear a click. Manually open the drawer.
!
Release Button — ejects the CD tray. Press this button when power is on to insert a
CD into or remove a CD from the drive.
!
Status LED — lights during data read operations. Do not eject the CD or turn off
the NEC Versa notebook when the indicator is lit.
