DVD-RW media using the 'Disc Backup' function of TOSHIBA Disc
Creator.

■ You cannot back up DVD-ROM, DVD Video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R
or DVD+RW to CD-R or CD-RW media using the 'Disc Backup' function
of TOSHIBA Disc Creator.
■ TOSHIBA Disc Creator cannot record in packet format.
■ You might not be able to use the 'Disc Backup' function of TOSHIBA
Disc Creator to back up a DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R or DVD+RW disc
that was made with other software on a different optical media recorder.
■ If you add data to a DVD-R or DVD+R disc that you have already
recorded to, you might not be able to read the added data under some
circumstances. For example, it cannot be read under 16-bit operating
systems, such as Windows 98SE and Windows Me, while in Windows
NT4 you will need Service Pack 6 or later, and in Windows 2000, you
will need Service Pack 2. In addition to this, some DVD-ROM and DVD-
ROM / CD-R/RW drives cannot read this added data regardless of the
operating system.
■ TOSHIBA Disc Creator does not support recording to DVD-RAM discs -
to achieve this you should use Windows Explorer or another similar
utility.
■ When you back up a DVD disc, be sure that the source drive supports
recording to DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R or DVD+RW media - if this is
not the case then the source disc might not be backed up correctly.
■ When you back up a DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R or DVD+RW disc, be
sure to use the same type of disc.
■ You cannot partially delete any data written to a CD-RW, DVD-RW or
DVD+RW disc.
