Lenovo USB 2.0 CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo II Drive - Manual (Page 33)

Chapter 6. Application software
Your USB 2.0 CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo II Drive Software and User’s Guide Super CD
contains the following software:
v Direct-to-Disc (DLA)
This software enables you to write directly to CD-RW media only using the
drive letter like you would if you were writing to a dis kette. All disc format
types can be formatted by DLA. With DLA, you can drag-and-drop files, create
new directories, or save files from any application directly to your Combo II
Drive.
v UDF reader
This software enables you to read DLA-created discs on systems with a
read-only CD or DVD drive.
v Multimedia Center for Think Offerings
Multimedia Center for Think Offerings is disc mastering software that allows
you to create your own music or data discs from files on your computer, or from
other disc media such as CDs or DVDs. Music discs created with Multimedia
Center for Think Offerings will play on any CD player, whether it’s at home, in
your car, or through your computer’s CD-ROM. Multimedia Center for Think
Offerings also makes it easy to create data discs that can be read on any
appropriate CD or DVD disc reader.
Multimedia Center for Think Offerings guides you, step-by-step, through the
recording process with simple Wizards and an intuitive user-interface.
Using Multimedia Center for Think Offerings you can create:
– Exact copies of existing discs - The Exact Copy feature makes a duplicate of
your master disc, transferring the disc layout of the original disc to your
CD-R or CD-RW.
– Discs of archived data from your hard drive – The Make a Data Disc feature
is used to store electronic data, such as the files and applications that reside
on your computer’s hard drive. Unlike music discs, data discs are used to
store files that are readable only by a computer, and cannot be played on
your home or car stereo—even if audio files are on the disc.
– Music compilations from WAV, MP3, or WMA files, or from existing music
discs – The Make a Music Disc feature creates custom music discs from files
on your hard drive or your existing music discs. The CD music database
feature can automatically tag your files with track information to help you
sort through your collection.
– Create images of your CDs and DVDs on your hard disc.
– Burn saved CD images to disc.
