OPTICAL DRIVE — You can install devices such as a DVD drive or other optical drive in the optical drive
bay. For more information, see page 88.
OPTICAL-DRIVE- TRAY EJECT BUTTON — Press this button to eject a CD or DVD from the optical drive.
USB
CONNECTORS — Connect USB devices, such as a mouse, keyboard, or printer. You can also connect
the optional floppy drive directly to a USB connector using the optional floppy-drive cable
AIR VENT — The computer uses fans to create airflow through the vents, which prevents the computer
from overheating.
CAUTION: Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air vents. Do not store
your computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a closed briefcase, while it is running. Restricting
the airflow can damage the computer or cause a fire.
