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. WindowsXP and later versions of Windows

support this feature.

•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 instructions below 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.

Creating a data disc

To create a data disc:

1Insert a blank, writable optical disc into your optical disc drive. The Autoplay dialog box

opens.

2Click Burn files to disc. The Prepare this blank disc dialog box opens.

3Type the title of the disc, then click Show formatting options.

4Click Mastered, then click Next. An empty folder opens.

5Open the folder that contains the files you want to burn to disc, then click and drag the

files to the empty disc folder.

6Click Burn to disc. The files are burned to the disc.

Help

then click Help and Support. Type live file system in the Search Help box, then
