How to Show a Superdrive on a Mac Desktop
Turn on the Mac. For laptops such as the MacBook Pro and all-in-one desktops such as the iMac, the Superdrive is located on the right side of the casing. For the 'Mac Pro' desktop computer, the drive is located on the upper section of the front panel.
Position the CD or DVD with the label side face up and gently push the disc into the Superdrive slot. You will feel the drive turn on and begin to pull the disc in.
Wait a few seconds. You will hear the drive start spinning the disc to read the disc contents. Go to the desktop either by using one of the 'hot corners,' moving your mouse cursor to one of the four corners of the screen or by clicking 'Finder' in the 'Dock' followed by 'Desktop.'
Look around the desktop for an icon of a CD. Depending on the contents or type of disc inserted, the icon will be a blank silver looking disc or a disc shaped image related to the disc contents. As long as the disc is inside the Superdrive, the drive will be viewable on the Mac desktop.

How to Tell Whether Your Mac Fan Is Broken (3 Steps)
Hold your hand next to the heat vents. On a desktop model, the vents are on the back, near the top of the case. On a MacBook or MacBook Pro, the heat vents are on the bottom of the case, in the crease where the screen folds down. If you feel heat flowing out of the vents, your fan is blowing heat out.
Press your ear to your Mac's case. With either a MacBook or MacBook Pro, you should press it to the bottom of the case. If your fan is running, you hear a quite whirring in the case.
Feel the bottom of your case. During normal use, your Mac's case becomes very warm. If your fan is broken, the case becomes extremely hot.
