Using single and double-sided DVD-RAM media

DVD-RAM media is available in single-sided and double-sided versions.

The 2.6 GB and 4.7 GB versions are single-sided. The 9.4 GB version is double-sided. To access the data on both sides of the media, you must remove the media from the drive, turn it over, and re-insert it into the drive.
