虚拟光驱将CD以及未受保护的DVD复制为压缩映像或“虚拟光盘”。此映像将在光盘原始位置运行，最多运行数量最多可达23个虚拟光盘。将所有的虚拟光盘存放在光盘柜中，转移至笔记型计算机中。还可以透过网络共享此虚拟光盘。虚拟光盘可直接在硬盘上使用，这样既可以减少CD-ROM驱动的磨损，也可以延长笔记型计算机电池的寿命。虚拟光盘的读取速度比CD-ROM快200倍，大大的改善了计算机游戏，照片光盘以及模拟光驱的应用程序的性能。

虚拟光盘专业版可以将扩展包，程序以及文件在瞬间制作为自订光盘。也可以预加载虚拟光盘同时运行多张光盘。在运行过程中，可以随意切换，且不需要等待加载。虚拟光盘在Windows资源管理器中会显示代号。这样一来虽然只是虚拟驱动，Windows资源管理器也一样将其视为物理光驱。

FarStone VirtualDrive Pro is a CD emulation utility that creates disc images, or "virtual CDs" from game and application CDs and DVDs. This enables you to run games and applications without the physical disc loaded in a CD/DVD-ROM drive. Your virtual CDs (VCDs) run in any one of up to 23 "virtual drives" that you configure in the software and that appear as drive letters in Windows Explorer. VirtualDrive Pro also includes a full version of Virtual Hard Drive, a RAM disk drive utility that functions like an extra hard drive on your computer, only much faster and without wear and tear on physical parts.

Archive your virtual CDs in a searchable library, transport them on a laptop computer, or share them over a network. Virtual CDs play directly on the hard drive, saving wear and tear on your CD-ROM drive and extending the battery life of laptop computers. They have access speeds nearly 200 times faster than CD-ROM counterparts, greatly improving the performance of PC games, photo CDs, and disc-based applications.
