CD ROM drives are the units used by computers to read CDs. Occasionally, loose cables or damage can cause the CD ROM drive to be unable to read disks, show up on your computer, or even open the drive drawer. If this has happened to your Dell Latitude E5500 and you are sure the drivers and disks are not the issue, then it may be time to inspect the CD ROM drive. If you have ten minutes and a Philips #2 screwdriver, this quick guide can help you remove it for repair or replacement.
