Connect and Set Up a
CD/DVD Drive
You can set up a
CD/DVD drive so that it is always detected, or so that you must connect it
manually.
You can turn off the Automatically detect
physical CD/DVD feature while the virtual machine is powered on, but you must power off
the virtual machine before you can enable this feature. Use the
Shut Down
command in the
Virtual Machine menu. If your CD/DVD drive is
a USB device,
Fusion
handles
it as a USB device, not a CD/DVD drive. See Configuring the USB Controller and Connecting USB Devices.
