Doing Common Tasks Understanding Your Drives The PC has a diskette (floppy) drive (select models only), and one or more compact disc (CD) drives. For the optional 6-In-1 memory card reader, refer to "Using the 6-In-1 Memory Card Reader" on page 58. There are different types of optical disc drives that may be included with the PC, depending on your PC model: ■ CD-ROM drive, which can read audio and data CD discs. ■ CD-RW drive, which can read and record (burn) audio and data CD discs. ■ DVD-ROM drive, which can read CD and DVD discs. ■ DVD+RW/+R drive, which can read and write (burn) CD and DVD discs. ■ Combination drive, which combines the functions of two drives into one: either a DVD+RW/+R drive and a CD-RW drive, or a DVD-ROM drive and a CD-RW drive. Note: There are two types of DVD discs: DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW. DVD-R and DVD-RW discs do not work in the DVD+RW/+R drive. On some PCs, the CD-RW drive is labeled cd writer, the DVD+RW/+R drive is labeled dvd writer, and the combo drive is labeled dvd writer/cd writer combo drive. Common Tasks Quick Start Guide 57
