Viewing the contents of a CD or DVD
CDs and DVDs contain files just like diskettes and the hard 
disk. CDs are often used to install software or store files that 
require lots of space, such as photographs and large 
presentation files. You can use Explorer or My Computer to 
view the contents of any CD or DVD.
Removing a disc with the computer on
Never press the eject button or turn off the computer while the 
drive-in-use light is glowing. Doing so could damage the disk 
or the drive.

The disc tray partially opens.

Grasp the sides of the disc tray and pull it fully open.

Remove the disc from the disc tray and place it in its 
protective cover.
If the disc is spinning when you open the disc tray, wait for the 
disc to stop before removing it.

Close the disc tray by pressing gently on the center of the 
tray until it clicks, indicating that it is locked.
