Operating Basics
■
If the disc is poor in quality, dirty or damaged, writing or rewriting errors
may occur. Be careful to check the disc for dirt or dama ge before you
use it.
■
The actual number of rewrites to CD-RW or DVD-RW/+RW/-RAM is
affected by the quality of the disc and the way it is used.
■
There are two types of DVD-R: authoring and general use discs. Do not
use authoring discs. Only general use discs can be written to by a
computer drive.
■
You can use DVD-RAM discs that can be removed from a cartridge and
DVD-RAM discs designed without a cartridge. You cannot use a disc with
a 2.6 GB single-sided capacity or 5.2 GB double-sided capacity.
■
Other DVD-ROM drives for computers or other DVD players may not be
able to read DVD-R/+R/-RW/+RW/-RAM discs.
■
Data written to a CD-R/DVD-R/+R disc cannot be deleted either in whole
or in part.
■
Data deleted (erased) from a CD-RW and DVD-RW/+RW/-RAM disc
cannot be recovered. Check the content of the disc carefully before you
delete it. If multiple drives that can write data to discs are connected, be
careful not to delete data from the wrong drive.
■
In writing to a DVD-R/+R/-RW/+RW disc, some disc space is required for
file management, so you may not be able to write the full capacity of the
disc.
