Using the Hard Drive

The hard drive stores system files, software, and data files inside
your computer. When you install software, download files from
the Internet, receive e-mail and attachments, or create new files,
the computer saves them on your hard drive. The available
storage space is gradually used. To regain storage space, you can
delete files or programmes loaded on your computer, or save
them on external media such as diskettes, CD-R or CD-RW
discs.

CD-ROM, CD-RW, or DVD-ROM Drive

Note: Your computer must be turned on before you can insert or remove a
disc.
To insert a CD into an optical drive, follow these steps:
1. Press the Load/Eject
button to open the drive
door.
2. Carefully lift the disc from
the CD case by holding the
disc only by the edges to
avoid touching the surface.
