The DVD-ROM drive

The full-size, maximum 2.4 speed DVD-ROM drive module lets you run
either 12 cm (4.72") or 8 cm (3.15") CD/DVDs without using an adaptor.

computer is accessing a DVD-ROM, an LED next to the eject button glows.

The minimum (centre) and maximum (outer edge) for DVDs and CDs are:

DVD

1.7-speed (centre)

4-speed (outer edge)
