Using optical disc drives

The full-size drive provides high-performance execution of
CD/DVD-ROM-based programs. You can run either 12 cm (4.72") or
8 cm (3.15") CD/DVDs without an adaptor. A Serial ATA interface controller
is used for CD/DVD-ROM operation. When the computer is accessing a
CD/DVD-ROM, an indicator on the drive glows.

If you have an Ultra Slim Bay DVD Super Multi (Double Layer) Drive Kit II,
refer also to the

Writing CD/DVDs on Ultra Slim Bay DVD Super Multi

(Double Layer) Drive Kit II

section for precautions on writing to CDs/DVDs.
