•DVD-RWs and DVD-RAMs are rewritable.
•DVD-Rs are non-rewritable.
This can be due, among other reasons, to problems and
errors that can occur during the creation or recording of
DVD and other software and the manufacture of software
discs (including blank discs).
Moreover, because of variations in the quality of discs, this
recorder may not be able to record on all discs that bear a
DVD-RAM, DVD-R or DVD-RW logo, but you should not
encounter difficulty if you use only high quality recordable
DVD discs.
