7.3.1DVD ROM/CD RW

The DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive is an optional feature. Recording methods supported by the disk drive: Disc at once, Track at once, Session at once, Packet writing, whereby Disc at once und Track at once are recommended due to their compatibility to other CD drives.

DVD-ROM, CD-ROM, CD-R and Video CDs can be read.

Burner/DVD player software

To utilize the full functionality of our DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive, you need to install additional software (burning or DVD player software). This software is included on the CD supplied with the device. Insert the CD in the drive, run setup and follow the instructions on the screen.

Notice

When first starting the burner software, no data carriers should be inserted in the drive. This is because data carriers with errors can interrupt the automatic hard drive recognition. The correct display of the possible burning function will therefore not be given.

Notes on burning optical data carriers

Caution

Danger of data errors when burning optical data carriers

Burning operation is permissible only in an undisturbed environment, i.e. shock and vibration stress must be avoided. Because of heavy fluctuation in the quality of CD-Rs, data may be corrupted in a burning session, even if no error message is initially displayed. The written data can only be verified by comparing these with the source. To be on the safe side, data should be verified after every burning session.
