NOTE: Some PCs come with the Double-Layer DVD Writer. It supports single-layer and double-Layer DVD media. Double-Layer technology gives you greater capacity and allows you to store up to 8 GB* of data on double-layer DVD+R

or DVD-R media.

Double-Layer is a new technology. Double-Layer media compatibility will vary widely with some home DVD players and DVD-ROM drives.

*1 GB is defined as 1 billion bytes. 1 GB = 1 billion bytes when referring to hard disk drive capacity. Actual formatted capacity is less.

For the latest disc compatibility information for your PC, go to the HP Support Web site at: http://www.hp.com/support

NOTE: Double-Layer DVD technology is supported by select models only.

NOTE: The Sonic recording programs support the double-layer technology.
