Disc Drive



Disc drives are used in every day computers. They are used for installing software (such as operating systems, Microsoft office etc) and watching films etc. The main components of a CD/DVD ROM drive are a small drive motor, a tracking mechanism and a laser/lens assembly, all of which connect to the motherboard of the computer via a 40-pin ribbon cable (IDE).
