Operating Basics Turn off the power before you use the eject hole. If the disc is spinning when you open the disc tray, the disc could fly off the spindle and cause injury. Writing Disc on Optical Disc drive The optical drive installed on this computer cannot write multiple sessions on DVD-R DL disc sessions. Once a disc has been written to once, it will be finalized. Once finalized, no further writing to the disc will be possible regardless of what portion of the total disc capacity was used. You can use the BD-Writer drives to write data to either CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, DVD-R DL or BD-R/BD-RE discs. You can use the DVD SuperMulti drive or BD-Combo drives to write data to either CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM or DVD-R DL discs. TOSHIBA Disc Creator and Corel Digital Studio are provided as writing software with this computer. Corel Digital Studio can be used to write files in video format. TOSHIBA Disc Creator can be used to write data. ■ CD-R/RW media cannot be accessed using the Create CD/DVD option in Media Center. When writing information to media using an optical drive, you should always ensure that you connect the AC adaptor to a live power socket. It is possible that, if data is written while powered by the battery pack, the write process may sometimes fail due to low battery power - in these instances data loss may occur. Important message Before you write or rewrite to any of the media supported by the DVD Super Multi drive or BD drive, please read and follow all of the setup and operating instructions in this section. If you fail to do so, you may find that the DVD Super Multi drive or BD drive may not function properly, and you may fail to write or rewrite information successfully. This may cause you to either lose data or incur other damage to the drive or media. Before writing or rewriting ■ Based on TOSHIBA's limited compatibility testing, we suggest the following manufacturers of CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVDRW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW or DVD-RAM media, however, it must be noted that disc quality can affect write or rewrite success rates. Please also be aware that in no event does TOSHIBA guarantee the operation, quality or performance of any disc. User's Manual 4-18
