I've done a search but I can't find it anywhere.

Unlike external hard drives, I can't work out how to exclude the CD/DVD drive from Spotlight. It's really annoying because I often have a DVD in the Powerbook and everytime I run spotlight I get a delay whilst the disk spins up.

Any easy ways of excluding the CD drive?
