Optical (CD/DVD) Device

There is a bay for a 5.25" optical (CD/DVD) device (12.7mm height). The actual de-

vice will depend on the module you purchased (see “Storage” on page C - 3). The

optical device is usually labeled “Drive D:” and may be used as a boot device if

properly set in the BIOS (see “Boot Menu” on page 5 - 14).

Loading Discs

To insert a CD/DVD, press the open button and carefully place a CD/

DVD onto the disc tray with label-side facing up (use just enough force

for the disc to click onto the tray’s spindle). Gently push the CD/DVD

tray in until its lock “clicks” and you are ready to start. The busy indicator

will light up while data is being accessed, or while an audio/video CD,

or DVD, is playing. If power is unexpectedly interrupted, insert an object

such as a straightened paper clip into the emergency eject hole to open

the tray.
