...it, how do i disable the internal drive? I'm using a gateway m-7315u laptop.
i don't have an external cd drive right now.
 
You don't need to disable the drive. Just plug in your external USB optical drive and it will take on the next available drive letter.
 
just go to device manager click the plus sign to expand to show the drive, right click the drive and click disable or click uninstall shutdown and remove the dvd drive
