| + | [* black] Hmmm… This optical drive feels really heavy. Appearing much larger than [guide|814|most optical drives|stepid=4423], we take to the scales! |
| [* black] ''424.2 grams!'' That means that the optical drive accounts for nearly a third of the 1.5-kg device. | |
| [* black] We suspect that the large optical drive may be a bi-product of the larger motherboard underneath. A case expansive enough to accomodate the motherboard leaves some extra room for a bigger optical drive. | |
| [* icon_note] Possible benefits to using a clunkier disc-reader could be reduced cost, quieter operation, or improved longevity over a slimmer drive. |
