Asus V6800V CD/DVD Drive Replacement

Introduzione

Replacing a CD/DVD drive may need to take place when the drive simply fails to perform its normal functions. It has built up too much debris/dust, or the drive itself may have no power due to broken internal mechanisms and parts. Replacing the drive may resolve issues with lag and lack of smooth audio/visuals so the CD/DVD can run smoothly for anyone wanting to enjoy media, or burn a CD.

Before beginning, unplug the laptop and make sure it is completely off.

The battery and hard drive will need to be removed before replacing the CD/DVD drive on the last step.
