Connecting an Optical Drive (optional)

To carry the floppy disk drive
Fold the floppy disk cable into the compartment on the right side.
Notes on handling disks
❑ Do not open the shutter manually and touch the surface of the disk.
❑ Keep disks away from magnets.
❑ Keep disks away from direct sunlight and other heat sources.
Connecting an Optical Drive (optional)
You can use an optional optical drive such as the PCGA-CD51/A CD-ROM drive
with your computer. If you use an optional drive when your computer is running
on battery power, the battery life will be shorter. The drive draws power from the
computer through a PC Card.
(Windows Me only) If you choose and remove the USB Disk, the internal
memory stick becomes disabled.
If you have removed the USB Disk by mistake (instead of the USB floppy),
take the following steps to recover it.
1 Open the start menu, select Settings, Control Panel, and then the
System icon. The System Properties appear. Select Device
Manager.
2 Click the Refresh button.
3 In the “Stop a Hardware device” dialog box, confirm that the
device can be safely removed from the system. Click OK.
If you connect a non-Sony DVD drive to your VAIO PictureBook, the
DVD playback may not function properly. The bundled DVD software
must be installed to play a DVD.
For best performance, it is recommended that you use a Sony compatible
DVD drive.
