English term or phrase: disc tray
Qual è il termine esatto in italiano?

Hold the disc by its inner (hole) edge and outer edge and load it into the disc tray with the label side facing up (For single-sided discs). Be sure to remove the disc after use and store vertically in a clean protection jacket. Clean the disc by wiping gently in a straight line from the inside to the outside of the disc with a soft cloth. For excessive dirt, use a damp cloth with a diluted solution of neutral detergent. Use of benzene, alcohol, and other chemicals might damage the finish.

Explanation:
spero che Chiara non se la prenda, ma nella striscia dei commenti non c'è mai spazio sufficiente per spiegare tutto bene.
Google (per quello che vale) dà il doppio di hit per cassetto (rispetto a vassoio)... è questo un metodo utile per stabilire la diffusione di un termine in caso di uso di due sinonimi? Non lo so! Tuttavia, ci tengo a sottolineare, che per il "tray CD" dei computer, i glossari Microsoft danno "cassetto".

Vassoio


Explanation:
Si dice proprio vassoio, come a pagina 6 di questo file di istruzioni che ho trovato su Internet.
A volte viene anche chiamato cassetto, ma e' meno frequente.

Ciao, Chiara

Vano disco


Explanation:
Ho visto usato tanto "vano disco" quanto "cassetto" e "alloggiamento". Personalmente propendo per il primo.

Buon lavoro!
