Operating Basics Writing CDs on CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive Depending on the type of drive installed, you may be able to write CDs. The CD-RW/DVD-ROM 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 drive section. CD-R discs can be written to only once. CD-RW discs can be rewritten many times. 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: TAIYOYUDEN CO., LTD. Mitsui Chemicals Inc. MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL CORPORATION RICOH Co., Ltd. Hitachi Maxell Ltd. CD-RW: MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL CORPORATION RICOH Co., Ltd. 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 universal 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 Drag'n Drop CD has not been confirmed. Therefore, operation with other software cannot be guaranteed. Satellite Pro A10 Series 4-8
