Copying CDs and DVDs

NOTE: Ensure that you observe all copyright laws when creating CDs or DVDs.

This section applies only to computers that have a CD-RW, DVD+/-RW, or CD-RW/DVD (combo) drive.

NOTE: The types of CD or DVD drives offered by Dell may vary by country.

The following instructions explain how to make an exact copy of a CD or DVD. You can also use Sonic Digital Media for other purposes, such as creating music CDs from audio files stored on your computer or backing up important data. For help, open Sonic Digital Media and then click the question mark icon in the upper-right corner of the window.

The DVD-writable drives installed in Dell™ computers can write to and read DVD+/-R, DVD+/-RW, and DVD+R DL (dual layer) media, but cannot write to and may not read DVD-RAM or DVD-R DL media.
