Installing CD-RW Software
Did you know... The CD-RW drive allows you to create your own CDs. You can buy two types of media: CD-RW and CD-R. CD-RW refers to compact discs (or drives) that are readable and writable. CD-RW discs can hold more than 450 times the information that can be stored on a floppy disk and CD-R media can be played on most of the newer CD players, CD-ROM and DVD-ROM drives. CD-R media can be written to only once. However, you can write to CD-RW media using multiple recording sessions until you close out the disc. CD-RW media can be used to make backups of your personal CDs or hard disk. These discs are reusable and can be erased and rewritten to numerous times.
✎Note CD-RW software is only available on selected models.
