Adding a Drive to the System

The internal hard drive and optical drive are standard features of
the computer. The type of optical drive varies by computer model.
An optional drive can be added to the system by connecting it,
as instructed in the drive user guides, to one of the USB ports or
to the 1394 port (select models only).

Using the IDE Drive Light

The IDE drive light blinks when either the hard drive or an optical
drive is being accessed.
