Writing CDs on DVD-ROM&CD-R/RW drive
Depending on the type of drive installed, you may be able to write CDs.
The DVD-ROM&CD-R/RW drive lets you write as well as read CD-ROMs.
Observe the precautions in this section to ensure the best performance
for writing CDs. For information on loading and unloading CDs refer to the
Media care section.
Before writing or rewriting
Please observe the following points when you write or rewrite the data.
■
We recommend the following manufacturers of CD-R and CD-RW
media. Media quality can affect write or rewrite success rates.
TOSHIBA has confirmed the operation of CD-R and CD-RW media of the
manufacturers above. Operation of other media cannot be guaranteed.
■
The actual number of rewrites to CD-RW media is affected by the
quality of the disc and the way it is used.
■
Be sure to connect the AC adaptor when you write or rewrite.
■
Be sure to close all other software programs except the writing
software.
■
Refer to the Writable discs , Chapter 2 for the details about the types of
writable CD/DVD discs.
■
Do not turn off the power of the optical disc drive while the computer is
accessing the drive. If you turn off the power, you may lose data.
When writing information to media using an optical drive, you should
always ensure that you connect the AC adaptor to a power plug socket.
It is possible that, if data is written when powered by the battery pack,
the write process may sometimes fail due to low battery power - in these
instances data loss may occur.
