Using optical disk drives

The text and illustrations in this section refer primarily to the optical disk drive. However, operation is the same for other optical drive in the Slim Select Bay. The full-size drive provides high-performance execution of CD/ DVD-ROM-based programs. You can run either 12 cm (4.72") or 8 cm (3.15") CD/DVDs without an adaptor. An ATAPI interface controller is used for CD/DVD-ROM operation. When the computer is accessing a CD/DVD- ROM, an indicator on the drive glows and the Slim Select Bay indicator glows.

Use the WinDVD application to view DVD-Video discs.

If you have a DVD-ROM&CD-R/RW drive, refer also to the Writing CDs on DVD-ROM&CD-R/RW drive section for precautions on writing to CDs.
