If it’s only 5 years old it should have the ability to install from a network.
I have a 7 year old laptop and it can install either from dvd/cd, usb, network. It also is running the fedora 30 which is the newest version.
Does it have the ability to boot from network? Didn't you say that the laptop has an internal DVD/CD drive? Could your install media need to be locked in some way after the burn is complete? Is the ISO too new to work with old hard ware?
These are a few of my thoughts. I'll see if I can find my own drives to burn a disc for you.
