Using the CD-ROM Drive
The system’s CD-ROM drive occupies a 5.25-inch peripheral device bay, and is accessible
through a tray or a slot at the front of the base unit. The CD-ROM drive is an Enhanced
Integrated Device Electronics (EIDE) device that features MPC-3 compatibility and multi-
session Photo CD support. The drive also supports software ejection of discs and has an
external amplified headphone jack.
If you purchased a DVD-ROM drive to replace the standard CD-ROM drive, you can use it
as a standard CD-ROM drive.

Place the disc, printed side up, in the tray and press the eject button to load the disc.

slot.
