The text and illustrations in this section refer primarily to the DVD-ROM drive in the
Slim Select Bay. However, operation is the same for the CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive
and the DVD Multi drive in Slim Select Bay. 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. An ATAPI interface controller
is used for CD/DVD-ROM operation. When the computer is accessing a
CD/DVD, an indicator on the drive glows and the Slim Select Bay indicator glows.
NOTE: Use the WinDVD 4 application to view DVD-Video discs.
If you have a CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive, refer also to the Writing CDs section for
precautions on writing to CDs.
