I'm not really too worried...I figure if the cd/dvd drive is bad and can't be saved, then I can get an external drive, they are not expensive at all.

Jessica....I've heard that the memory sticks or flash drives don't last very long. Just wondering if you've heard that or not. I really don't know much about them at all.

Whether my computer can be fixed or not I hope it doesn't take too long to get it back. The hard drive is still good and everything works like a charm...just the cd/dvd drive that I can't 'find'. At least I have my iPad and Ricky's old laptop to use until it returns home.
