Operating Basics
■
CD-RW (Ultra Speed +) media should not be used as data may be lost
or damaged.
■
You should always write from the computer’s hard disk drive onto the
CD/DVD - do not try to write from shared devices such as a server or
any other network device.
■
Writing with software other than TOSHIBA Disc Creator and InterVideo
WinDVD Creator Platinum has not been confirmed, therefore operation
with other software applications cannot be guaranteed.

CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R (Double
