Packet Writing
This mode is used when writing to a track of a disc using small blocks of data
called “packets,” in a manner similar to a floppy disk.
This mode is useful when
making small incremental backups of data.
You will need to use software that
specifically supports packet writing, such as Adaptec’s Direct CD.

Discs must be formatted before they can be used for packet writing.
With CD-RW,
erased data can be overwritten until the disc is completely full.
With CD-R, the space used by the erased data cannot be reused and is “masked” so that
it is no longer visible.
This can be done up to 100 times.
