The HP 6730s comes standard with a 8X DVD Rewritable Drive with 2.4X Dual Layer Capacity to meet your DVD or CD (24X) burning needs.
A DVD-ROM drive does not have the capability to burn DVDs, only read them.you can reference the article :DvD Drive Can not Write to Writable Discs (Windows 98, ME, XP)http://laptopacadapter.wordpress.com/2010/01/23/dvd-drive-can-not-write-to-writable-discs-windows-98-me-xp/
If you just have a DVD ROM (Read Only Memory) there is no way to convert it to writable or re-writable (no method reasonable without re engining the hardware from scratch). You need to buy a new DVD RW drive. Good news is that these are very inexpensive now.
A DVD RW drive will read any sort of CD or DVD (except blue-ray but some might) and it will also burn to a writable or rewritable CD or DVD.
simple answer if your laptop was made after 2006 then the answer is YES! laptops now must come standard with DVD drive that plays CD's
You just need to buy a laptop dvd drive, it will work.
If you're trying to burn to a Dual Layer DVD, you need a DL DVD Writable drive.
It has to be a DVD-RW or DVD+RW. R means Writable, RW means Re-Writable.
You put the dvd in the disk drive
No. The Eee PC contains no optical drive at all. However, the laptop does come with software to play DVDs if you connect an external drive via USB.
The VAIO FW 240 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 laptop does not have a Blue Ray DVD drive.
Put it into a DVD player or a computer that has a DVD drive in order to read the information on it. The "RW" means re-writable. Meaning you can erase the information on it and use it again.
Yes you can, as long as it has cd/dvd drive, should be on the side
