can i mount this into a cd rom bay?

No. The antenna would interfere, and being in the cabinet you may have RF issues. I am also not sure if it would fit dimensionally.

It would probably be too large so you would have to measure it. And, the blue tooth antenna on the back of the unit would have to be moved.

Yes but will need to be formatted correctly. Research the install online and you should find what you need.

I think so but I am not sure. I believe you can hook any USB external drive to it.

There are three usb ports..so if the CD drive is connected by way of that, I don't see why not.

it is a little wider than a usb plug (about the size of a quarter) I would guess that you would be able to mount it in a panel that is up to 3/4 in thick

You can install the program in this fashion, but so far I have been unable to find a way to add the levels to the program without a CDRom. Any suggestions? Currently I'm using an external hard drive.

No, you can plug it directly into a Local Area Network, use it with USB Sticks, USB-based external hard drives, external USB-based keyboard/mouse. I don't have a USB-based external cd-rom but I would not be surprised if it would work. The printer support is limited to portable printers that you would normally take with you (battery powered etc). I moderate a Yahoo group on this subject. Tom M.

Dj, you can do this as long as you have an image on a USB drive or a windows 7 install disc available as well as a product key, of course.

Don't see why not. Plug in the USB and, it basically runs like a flash drive.

You could, if you bought an optical drive separate to put in this laptop. Ordered as-is, it doesn't come with an optical drive (CD or DVD-Rom).

Have never donr this but, am sure it can be done. X-fer from SD card to CD.

It depends on what kind of connection your motherboard is using for the cd drive. If it uses SATA than no, you'll need to find a different one.

most cd tray is designed to accept small cd. just put in the center. If you feel uncomfortable you can e-mail me at hjk22039@gmail.com then I can send you those files for usb.

I'm sure if your capable, then yes you could mount it. But I would like to discourage you from even buying it!! The power supply designed for this unit and even made by the same company does not fit properly! It was a nightmare getting it in. I had to mount the power supply upside down to get it to fit! And now I'm having power supply issues

Yes, it can do that. Flip down the face plate by pressing the "open" button, and insert a CD or DVD.

Yes. Speaking from experience, the USB ports will not have any power unless the 4 pin connector is connected, and will not work at all. I Bought a "Y" adapter and connected it to the same connector as the CDROM drive.

Yes, just insert into the CD slot the opposite way. I do that with the one I have using it for my GPS.
