Using CDs and DVDs

Your computer might have a DVD ROM drive or recordable DVD drive installed. DVD drives use industry-standard, 12 cm (4.75-inch) CD media or DVD media.

If you have a recordable DVD drive, it can also record on DVD-R discs, DVD-RW discs, type II DVD-RAM discs, CD-RW standard and high speed discs, and CD-R discs.
