106 Learning the Basics
Using the optical disc drive
If your computer comes with a solid state drive (SSD) (available on certain
models), under certain unusual conditions of prolonged non-use and/or
exposure to high temperatures, your SSD may be vulnerable to data
retention errors.
Inserting an optical disc To insert an optical disc into the drive:
1Make sure the computer is turned on.
The drive will not open if the computer’s power is off.
2Make sure the drive’s in-use indicator light is off.
3Press the drive’s eject button.
The disc tray slides partially out of the drive.
4Grasp the tray and pull it fully open.

discs” on page 110.
