Using DVD Media Drives
Your computer can come with one of several types of DVD drives that allow you to perform
different tasks. What you can do depends on what kind of drive you have.
Handling CDs and DVDs
To avoid damaging a disc, follow these guidelines:
Return the disc to the case when you are finished using it.
Handle the disc by its outside edges or center hole only.
Do not touch the unlabeled side of a disc or place the unlabeled side down on a desk.
Doing so could scratch the surface of the disc.
Store discs at room temperature.
