Using optical disc drives

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. A Serial ATA interface controller
is used for CD/DVD-ROM operation. When the computer is accessing a
CD/DVD-ROM, an indicator on the drive glows.
Use the DVD playback application to view DVD-Video discs.
If you have a DVD Super Multi (Double Layer) Drive Kit II, refer also to the
Writing CD/DVDs on DVD Super Multi (Double Layer) Drive Kit II
for precautions on writing to CDs/DVDs.
When the power of the optical disc drive is off, pressing the FN + Tab keys
will turn the power of the optical disc drive on. Furthermore, it is possible to
set it to turn the power of the optical disc drive on and eject the tray at the
same time.
