7 Managing and sharing information

Drives are digital storage devices that help you store, manage, share, and access information. Your

computer has an internal hard drive or a solid state drive that stores your computer's software,

operating system, and also provides storage for all of your personal files. Some computers have a

built-in optical drive that allows you to read or write to a CD, DVD, or (on select models) Blu-ray Disc

(BD).

For added capacity or functionality, connect an external drive (purchased separately), such as an

optical drive or hard drive, or insert a digital storage card directly from your phone or camera. A

Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash drive, connected to the USB port on your computer, also allows

quick data transfer. Some devices use the computer's power to run; others have their own power

source. Some devices come with software that must be installed.

NOTE: For information about connecting external wireless devices, see Connecting to a network

on page 15.

NOTE: For more information about required software and drivers, or to learn which computer port to

use, see the manufacturer's instructions.

Using a USB device

Most computers have more than one USB port, because this versatile interface allows you to connect

numerous kinds of external devices–such as a USB keyboard, mouse, external drive, printer,

scanner, or USB hub–to your computer.

Your computer has more than one type of USB port. See

Getting to know your computer on page 4

for the types of USB ports you have on this computer. Be sure to purchase devices that are

compatible with your computer.
