Creating and copying data discs

You can burn two types of data discs:

Live File System writes files immediately to the recordable disc, making it a one-step process like copying files to a flash drive. The resulting disc is compatible with Windows XP and later versions of Windows.

Mastered copies files to a temporary folder before you tell the computer to burn the files to the disc. Although this is a slower process than Live File System, the resulting disc is compatible with all operating systems.

The following instructions show you how to burn a disc using the Mastered format, which can be read by all personal computers, regardless of the operating system installed.

Help
