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.

disconnect a drive, or turn off the computer while the light is 
glowing. Doing so could damage the CD, DVD, or drive.
