Using the optical disc drive
Optical storage is a popular medium for software, music, and video.
Digital versatile discs or Blu-ray™ Discs provide a significant
increase in data storage and support features that were not available
on previous video platforms. These features include wide-screen
movies, multiple language tracks, digital surround sound, multiple
camera angles, and interactive menus.

TECHNICAL NOTE: Your optical disc drive is set to play region 1
(North America) for DVD-ROMs or BD-ROMs, depending on the type
of drive. If you play a DVD or Blu-ray Disc™ from another region, the
drive will automatically change to play in the format of the other
region. The drive will allow you to change regions four times. On the
fourth change, the region will be “locked in.” That is, the drive will
only play DVDs and Blu-ray™ Discs from that last region. Note that
changing from region 1 to region 2 and back to region 1 is counted
as two changes.
