◆ 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 ,DVD-RW, DVD+RW or DVD-RAM
is affected by the quality of the disc and the way it is used.
◆ There are two types of DVD-R discs: 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

to read DVD-R/-RW or DVD+R/+RW discs.

or in part.
◆ Data deleted (erased) from a CD-RW and DVD-RW, DVD+RW and DVD-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/-RW, DVD+R/+RW or DVD-RAM disc, some disc space
is required for filemanagement, so you may not be able to write the full apacity
of the disc.
◆ Since the disc is based on the DVD standard, it might be filled with dummy data
if the written data is less than about 1 GB. Even if you write only a small mount
of data, it might take time to fill in the dummy data.
◆ DVD-RAM formatted by FAT32 cannot be read in Windows 2000 without
DVD-RAM Driver Software.

to write to the wrong drive.
