Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since Jim wants to transfer both spreadsheet and database files as well as MP3 and photo files between his home and work computers, he should choose an optical disc drive that is capable of reading and writing both DVDs and CDs. Option B, DVD/R/RW/CD-RW, is the best choice as it can read and write both DVD and CD formats. CD-RW (A) and CD-ROM (C) are limited to only CD formats, while Blu-ray (D) is not necessary for Jim's needs and could be more expensive than other options.
