CD-ROM Drive

I recently installed a CD-Rom drive in my personal computer. Two weeks before I underwent the task of tearing into my computer, I noticed a burning smell coming from it. The smell was my CD-Rom telling me goodbye. I knew that I had to make the decision of whether to install the drive myself or pay someone an outrageous amount of money to do it for me. I chose to take my chances and install my own CD-Rom. The following is a detailed description of how I did it. The first thing I had to do was make sure that the case I own had the space available to insert a CD-Rom drive. My case had plenty of space available, but if it hadn’t, there were a few different ways I could have still installed a new drive. The first option would have been to upgrade the case that contains my computer components. This would have been what I would have done if my case had not had the room. Upgrading the case is not the easiest solution to this problem, but it is the least expensive. The second option would be to buy an ext


ernal CD-Rom drive, which is much more expensive. The upside about an external drive is that it simply plugs into the back of the computer. The next step was to pick the appropriate drive for my system. Since the price of these drives has come down so low I purchased the fastest CD-Rom that was available. Three different kinds of CD-Rom drives available. The one that I purchased only plays CD’s. There are also drives that can play DVD movies and drives that can record music CD’s and the prices are very low for these as well. I decided to buy a 50X CD-Rom drive, which means that it has the ability to get information off a CD at fifty times the speed that a normal music CD player does. The next thing I did was to physically install the drive into my computer case. Before doing anything further I made sure that the computer was completely disconnected from the power source and I disconnected all cables from the back of the computer. I took off the computer cover, which is accomplished by removing several small screws from the back of the case
