Operating Basics

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.

The following special media recommended the next manufacturers.

Multi-speed and High-speed CD-RW:

MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL CORPORATION, RICOH Co., Ltd.

Ultra-speed CD-RW:

MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL CORPORATION

TOSHIBA has confirmed the operation of CD-R and CD-RW media of the

manufacturers above. Operation of other media cannot be guaranteed.

CD-RW can generally be rewritten about 1,000 times. However, the

actual number of rewrites is affected by the quality of the media and the

way it is used.

Be sure to connect the AC adaptor when you write or rewrite.

Be sure to close all other software programs except the writing

software.

Do not run software such as a screen saver which can put a heavy load

on the CPU.

Operate the computer at full power. Do not use power-saving features.

Do not write while virus check software is running. Wait for it to finish,

then disable virus detection programs including any software that

checks files automatically in the background.

Do not use hard disk utilities, including those intended to enhance HDD

access speed. They may cause unstable operation and damage data.

Write from the computer’s HDD to the CD. Do not try to write from

shared devices such as a LAN server or any other network device.

Writing with software other than RecordNow! has not been confirmed.

Therefore, operation with other software cannot be guaranteed.

When writing or rewriting

Note the following when you write or rewrite a CD-R or CD-RW.

Always copy data from the HDD to the CD. Do not use cut-and-paste.

The original data will be lost if there is a write error.

Do not perform any of the following actions:
