DVD drive sucks life out of machine

This is a discussion about DVD drive sucks life out of machine in the Windows Hardware category; Help! Whenever I leave a DVD in the drive (Lite-On), the system bogs down. It seems to relate to the disk spinning up, yet I am not using the drive. Task Manager does not show anything out of the ordinary.
