The driver letter for your CD/DVD driver varies based on the number of partitions your computer has. If your computer has 2 partitions, this drive would be Drive E:. The CD/DVD drive is not visible because there might be loss of connection of the connecting cables. The best thing you can do is to restart your  computer and try using the drive again.
