Using optical media drive

The text and illustrations in this section refer primarily to the optical CD-RW/
DVD ROM drive. However, operation is the same for all other optical media
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. An ATAPI interface controller is used for CD/DVD-
ROM operation. When the computer is accessing a CD/DVD-ROM, an indicator
on the drive glows.
Note: Use the WinDVD application to view DVD-Video discs.
Refer also to the Writing CDs on CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive section for precau-
tions on writing to CDs.
If you have a DVD Super Multi drive, refer also to the Writing CD/DVDs on
DVD Super Multi drive section for precautions on writing to CDs/DVDs.
