    No, your DVD drive will play both DVD's and normal CD-ROM discs. Most DVD drives these days can also write DVD's, although you will need some software for that. Hope this helps.

    Oh thank the Lord for that. And thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.
    Im pretty sure the notebook comes with some kind of cd/dvd burner software.
