CD-ROM reader
Your system comes standard with a 24-speed (maximum)
CD-ROM reader pre-installed as drive Q in the system. The reader
can be used to load programs from a CD or it can be used to play
audio CDs. The reader operates at different speeds depending on
whether the CD contains music or data. The reader is fully compatible
with Kodak Multisession Photo CDs™ and standard CDs.
The half-height CD-ROM reader is installed in a 5 1/4-inch accessible
slot. The reader is connected as the master device to the secondary
PCI/IDE connector on the system board via an I/O cable. An audio
cable connects the reader to the sound system.
