external cd attachment
I just bought a new computer, and it does not have a place to put a cd. The man at the store told me there is something I can buy to make this happen. What is that called?
has several names depending on which type and brand you want. Easiest and Least confusing way is to click on the Yellow Best Buy tab near the top left of the screen and under Computers & Tablets select Computer Accessories and Peripherals. The left hand side of the page will then display a list of different types of accessories and peripherals. Choose Optical Drives.
This will display all of the CD, DVD, and BluRay drives that can be found at Best Buy. All 3 of these will play cd's.
If you are not familiar with installing hardware or do not want to be without your computer for a day or 2 to have someone install it then I recommend an External drive. You will just plug those types into your USB port and within seconds start enjoying your music.
