Operating Basics
Using the optical disc drive
Operation is the same for all optical media drives. The full-size drive
provides high-performance execution of CD/DVD-based programs. You
can run either 12 cm (4.72") or 8 cm (3.15") CDs without an adaptor. An
ATAPI interface controller is used for CD/DVD operation. When the
computer is accessing a CD/DVD, an indicator on the drive glows.
Refer also to the
Writing CD/DVD with the DVD Super Multi drive
section
for precautions on writing to CD/DVD.
