Writing CDs on DVD-ROM and CD-R/RW drive
Depending on the type of drive installed, you may be able to write CDs. The
DVD-ROM and CD-R/RW drive lets you write as well as read CD-ROMs.
Observe the precautions in this section to ensure the best performance for
writing CDs. For information on loading and unloading CDs refer to the
Using optical media drives section.
Before writing or rewriting
Please observe the following points when you write or rewrite the data.
■ We recommend the following manufacturers of CD-R and CD-RW
media. Media quality can affect write or rewrite success rates.
■ CD-R discs can be written to only once. CD-RW discs can be rewritten
many times.
■ When the power of the optical media drive is off, the disc tray will not
open even if the eject button is pushed. Use the optical media drive
power button to turn the power of the optical media drive on. Refer to
Chapter 1, Special features .
■ Do not turn off the power of the optical media drive while the computer
is accessing the drive. If you turn off the power, you may lose data.
When writing to media using an optical drive, always connect the AC
adaptor to a power plug socket. If data is written while powered by the
batteries, writing may sometimes fail due to low battery power and data
loss may occur.
