Learning the Basics

Using compact discs

Avoid touching the magnetic surface of a diskette.
Fingerprints can prevent the drive from reading the data stored
on a diskette.
Never twist or bend a diskette.
Keep diskettes at room temperature and avoid exposing them
to direct sunlight. Otherwise, data may be lost.
Never place heavy objects on your diskettes.
Never eat, smoke, or use erasers near diskettes. Foreign
particles can damage the diskette's surface.
Keep diskettes away from sources of magnetism, such as
speakers and radios, since these can destroy data.
If the diskette is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth moistened in
water. Don't use cleaning fluids.

The disc-in-use light illuminates when the DVD-ROM drive is
being accessed. However, you will find that the diskette/DVD light
on the system indicator panel is easier to see while you are
working.
