Writing CD/DVD/Blu-ray™ discs

TOSHIBA Disc Creator and Corel Digital Studio are provided as writing software with this computer.

Corel Digital Studio can be used to write files in video format. TOSHIBA Disc Creator can be used to write data.

You can use the DVD Super Multi drive or Blu-ray™ Combo drive to write data to either CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD +R DL, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM or DVD-R DL discs.

You can use the Blu-ray™ Writer drive to write data to either CD-R, CD- RW, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW, DVD- RAM, DVD-R DL or BD-R/BD-RE discs.

When writing information to media using an optical drive, you should always ensure that you connect the AC adaptor to a live power socket. It is possible that, if data is written while powered by the battery pack, the write process may sometimes fail due to low battery power - in these instances data loss may occur.

Before you write or rewrite to any of the media supported by the DVD Super Multi Drive or Blu-ray™ Combo/Blu-ray™ Writer drive, please read
