CD-ROM Available? Does anyone know if this is truly shipping as a DVD-ROM (as indicated on Amazon), or is it CD-ROM.

I saw "Blu-Ray Drive" in "Technical Details" when I place order.Right now, it is just disappeared! Is that cheating?

Pamela, as I recall, it's a plug and go. I don't remember getting a CD with it. Unfortunately, I had to return it because it wasn't compatible with my company's software so I really can't tell you much more about it. Hope it works out for you!

Hi Kyle. This is downloadable content (DLC). No tangible disks are provided.

I received a 500GB HD and no DVD. I contacted the vendor and they sent me a DVD and 1 TB HD.Hope this helps.

Where did you by the sound drivers and how much?I finally got mine working but before Brian's post. He is correct' as best I can tell, and the problem rests with our computer software. I purchased a " DVD Decoder" download load on line from Roxio (I paid $20.98 but you can get it for a one time only down load for about $15 -if that is what you want). It now plays DVD movies and installs software which is what I wanted. I uninstalled the Hero program from my computer. Happy with the results but I only wish that I had been able to read Brian James post before I purchased the fix.

Am I crazy, or is it more than a bit offputting that, after buying a machine, you then have to start getting upgrades for it just to be able to play newer discs? My machine's about two years old, and the last disc I bought wouldn't load. Seems like a rip-off to me. And it's not like blu-ray sales have been strong enough to justify this sort of customer fleecing.

I had a similar problem with Amazon DVE-R 100 pile I bought.....Think it was just an abberation...but have been carefully buying only DVD+R ever since......also since found they worked as CDs...perhaps just abeled wrong.

Hey Kaylin - when I first received the unit & held it in my hands - I asked myself that same question: "What is that thing on the side, if it's not a DVD drive?" Answer: "A mostly black piece of glossy plastic!" (LOL / I was hoping maybe the description got it wrong. But no.) It looks like it's "DESIGNED" to accommodate a DVD drive (perhaps in a more expensive model?) But from me to you (person-to-person) it ain't there. Hope this helps! :-) Brian Newberry

No, Bal, for a brief moment Amazon themselves had it for preorder, and thats waht we are commenting on. It was literally only available for like a few hours. We are both waiting for a shipment update from amazon.

Really? Mine came with no disc and I bought a 64 gig. Check out the manual.

There is no optical drive (DVD-ROM). This is a small hard drive, but the idea is you keep most of your stuff in the cloud.

The listing states DVD/CDRW - it will only write CD's. If you order it from us, just send us an email and we will put a DVDRW in it for no added cost. Thanks, Computer World

This item is out of stock, and our specs does no indicate if this all-in-one is equipped with a DVD/CD or not..

it is downloadable - in fact the CD that came with it was out of date, and I had to download the correct software from the website anyway :)

Great I ordered thinking it came with Blu Ray drive. Can it be upgraded? I saw a video on YouTube that mentioned Blu Ray, but didn't exactly stated if it had it or not.

Thank you for the resource. I did order the computer from Amazon. Actually when I thought about, I rarely used the DVD drive in my Acer notebook. An outboard one will be just fine for my purposes.
