Using Multimedia

When prompted, insert a blank media into the drive and click OK.

If you have two media drives, select the drive into which you have

inserted your source media, and then click

Disc Copy. The computer

copies the data from the source media to the blank one.

Once you have finished copying the source media, the media that you have

created automatically ejects.

Using Blank Media

CD-RW drives can write to CD recording media only (including high-speed

CD-RW media) while DVD-writable drives can write to both CD and DVD

recording media.
Use blank CD-Rs to record music or permanently store data files. After the

maximum storage capacity of a CD-R is reached, you cannot write to that CD-R

again (see the Sonic documentation for more information). Use blank CD-RWs

if you plan to erase, rewrite, or update information on the CD later.
Blank DVD+/-Rs can be used to permanently store large amounts of data. After

you create a DVD+/-R disc, you may not be able to write to that disc again if the

disc is finalized or closed during the final stage of the disc creation process. Use

blank DVD+/-RWs if you plan to erase, rewrite, or update information on the

disc later.
