Important message
Before you write or rewrite to any of the media supported by the DVD
Super Multi Double Layer drive, please read and follow all of the setup and
operating instructions in this section. If you fail to do so, you may find that
the DVD Super Multi Double Layer drive may not function properly, and you
may fail to write or rewrite information successfully - this may cause you to
either lose data or incur other damage to the drive or media.
Disclaimer
TOSHIBA does not bear responsibility for the following:
■
Damage to any CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD-RW,
DVD+R, DVD+R (Double Layer), DVD+RW or DVD-RAM disc that may
be caused by writing or rewriting with this product.
■
Any change or loss of the recorded contents of CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R,
DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R (Double Layer),
DVD+RW or DVD-RAM media that may be caused by writing or
rewriting with this product, or for any business profit loss or business
interruption that may be caused by the change or loss of the recorded
contents.
■
Damage that may be caused by using third party equipment or
software.
Given the technological limitations of current optical disc writing drives, you
may experience unexpected writing or rewriting errors due to disc quality or
problems with hardware devices. In view of this, it is good practice to make
two or more copies of important data, in case of any undesired change or
loss of the recorded contents.
■
Use only round standard (12 cm) discs with this slot-loading optical
drive. Any other size or shape disc may not be able to be removed from
the slot and may damage the system as well as the disc.
■
When writing information to media using an optical drive, you should
always ensure that you connect the AC adaptor to a live power socket.
It is possible that, if data is written while powered by the battery pack,
the write process may sometimes fail due to low battery power - in
these instances data loss may occur.
