1. Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your new LaCie Slim DVD±RW.

Light and compact, the Slim DVD±RW is ideal for your DVD and

CD burning needs on your desk or on the go. Further, the Slim

DVD±RW can read and write to all the popular formats, such as

DVD±RDL, DVD±RW, CD-R, and CD-RW.

Double Layer DVD Recording

Double Layer (DL) discs are compatible with most consumer set-top

DVD players and computer DVD-ROM drives, enabling you to burn

DVDs that can play back in your living room.

On one DVD+RDL disc, you’ll be able to store up to four hours of MPEG-2 video, sixteen hours of VHS quality video or increase the video bit rate for higher quality movies. And with 8.5GB of storage space on a single DL disc, they’re ideal for archiving and backup applications.

At home or on the road, you have the right tool to backup your important files, create high-quality DVDs, or watch a favorite film on your computer.
