DVD Super Multi drive with double layer disc recording support
The full-size DVD super multi drive module lets you record data to
rewritable discs as well as run either 12cm (4.72") or 8cm (3.15") discs
without using an adapter.
This drive cannot use discs that allow writing faster than 8x speed or faster
(DVD-R, DVD+R with Single Layer, and DVD+RW), 6x speed or faster
(DVD-RW), 5x speed (DVD-RAM) and Ultra-speed+ (CD-RW).
AC adapter
The AC adapter converts AC power to DC power and reduces the voltage
supplied to the computer. It can automatically adjust to any voltage from
100 to 240 volts and to a frequency of either 50 or 60 hertz, enabling you to
use the computer in almost any country/region.
To recharge the battery, simply connect the AC adapter to a power source
and the computer. For more details, see Chapter 6: Power and Power-Up
Modes .
