About Your Computer 39
Left Side View
SECURITY CABLE SLOT — Lets you attach a commercially available antitheft device
to the computer. For more information, see "Security Cable Lock" on page 129.
AIR VENT — The computer uses fan(s) to create airflow through the vent(s), which
prevents the computer from overheating.
CAUTION: Do not block, push objects into, or allow dust to accumulate in the air
vents. Do not store your computer in a low-airflow environment, such as a closed
briefcase, while it is running. Restricting the airflow can damage the computer or
cause a fire. The computer turns on the fan when the computer gets hot. Fan noise
is normal and does not indicate a problem with the fan or the computer.
USB
CONNECTORS — Connect USB devices, such as a mouse, keyboard, or printer.
You can also connect the optional floppy drive directly to a USB connector using the
optional floppy-drive cable.
OPTICAL DRIVE — You can install devices such as a DVD drive or other optical drive
in the optical drive bay. For more information, see "Optical Drive" on page 182.
OPTICAL-DRIVE-TRAY EJECT BUTTON — Press this button to eject a CD or DVD
from the optical drive. This button only works when the computer is turned on.
