the data medium with the other.
The data medium is tested when you close the drive and the access LED on the
drive flashes to indicate that the test is in progress:
– if the LED does not stop flashing the data medium is bad but readable,
– if the LED flashes several times and then remains on, the data medium is not
readable and defective.

Optical drives are highly sensitive to excessive vibration. Vibration during
operation can damage the drive or the data medium.
