Introduction

You can add a number of options to make your computer even more 

powerful and convenient to use. The following options are available:

The CD/DVD Drive Acoustic Silencer utility 

allows you to configure the read speed at which 

the optical disc drive will operate. In use you can 

select either Normal Mode, which will operate 

the drive at its maximum speed for quick data 

access, or Quiet Mode, which operates the drive 

at single speed for audio CD playback and which 

can lessen the operational noise. This utility does 

not have any function when using DVD's.

1,024MB or 2,048MB memory module 

(DDR2-800) can easily be installed in the 

computer.

An additional battery pack can be purchased for 

use as either a spare or replacement. Please 

refer to Chapter 6, 

 

for futher information.

If you frequently use your computer at more than 

one site, it may be convenient to purchase an 

additional AC adaptor to be kept at each site in 

order to remove the need to always carry the 

adaptor with you.

The USB floppy diskette drive accommodates 

either a 1.44MB or 720KB floppy diskette through 

connection to one of the computer's USB ports. 

In use, please be aware that, while you cannot 

format 720KB floppy diskettes under Windows 

Vista

®

, you are able to read and write to diskettes 

that have already been formatted.

A slot is available to attach a security cable to the 

computer to deter theft.
