Hello @wolfeden29526 

 

There is no drive for a disk so is everyone streaming games?

Yikes, you are definately out of the loop.

Games on disks went out long ago. Everything is downloaded now from who ever you purchase from.

Lots of games sold through Steam and Origin, etc etc. No need to have a disk in the player to allow the game to play.

 

Im guessing you are looking to run some old games you still have on disk. You might consider an external DVD player.
