Selecting the right disc

An optical drive supports optical discs (CDs, DVDs, and BDs). CDs, used to store digital data, are also used for commercial audio recordings and are convenient for your personal storage needs. DVDs and BDs are used primarily for movies, software, and data backup purposes. DVDs and BDs are the same size as CDs but have a much higher storage capacity.

NOTE: The optical drive on your computer may not support all the types of optical discs discussed in this section.

CD-R discs

Use CD-R (write-once) discs to create permanent archives and to share files with virtually anyone. Typical uses include the following:

Distributing large presentations

Sharing scanned and digital photos, video clips, and written data

Making your own music CDs

Keeping permanent archives of computer files and scanned home records

Offloading files from your hard drive to free up disk space

After data is recorded, it cannot be erased or written over.

CD-RW discs

Use a CD-RW disc (a rewritable version of a CD) to store large projects that must be updated frequently. Typical uses include the following:

Developing and maintaining large documents and project files

Transporting work files

Making weekly backups of hard drive files

Updating photos, video, audio, and data continuously
