WHY OPTICAL DRIVES UNNECESSARILY FOR A LAPTOP?

It is quite obvious for people to blame the apple company for producing the laptops without optical drives. But now this is a time to turn back on the blames and think rationally. If the laptop users could ever think again about the use of optical drives in the last year, they will hardly get a solid number. A dozen is quite a big number if the use of optical drive is considered. If it is before three years, optical drives were important. But what is the condition now?

Initially optical drives were used for many purposes. The important uses among those were to install software, burn data, watch DVDs and to run emergency discs. But do you ‘really’ think that all these purposes are carried by optical drives today? For instance software installment happens very rarely and all those are present online. Burning data is not a necessity with USB drives hanging in every collar. Watching DVD on a laptop leads to extra battery consumption and it is advisable to watch it after storing the movie/contents in an USB drive. Now, rational thoughts will make us decide why to have this costing and weighing matter with no use. Instead of blaming companies, let us think twice again.
