If the disc is poor in quality, dirty or damaged, writing or rewriting errors may occur. Be careful to check the disc for dirt or damage before you use it.

The actual number of rewrites to CD-RW or DVD-RW/-RAM is affected by the quality of the disc and the way it is used.

There are two types of DVD discs: authoring and general use discs. Do not use authoring discs. Only general use discs can be written to by a computer drive.

You can use DVD-RAM discs that can be removed from a cartridge and DVD-RAM discs designed without a cartridge. You cannot use a disc with a 2.6 GH single-sided capacity or 5.2 GB double-sided capacity.

Other DVD-ROM drives for computers or other DVD players may not be able to read DVD-R/-RW discs.

You cannot partially delete any data written to a DVD-RW disc.

Data written to a CD-R/DVD-R disc cannot be deleted either in whole or in part.

Data deleted (Erase) from a CD-RW and DVD-RW/-RAM disc cannot be recovered. Check the content of the disc carefully before you delete it. If multiple drives that can be written to are connected, be careful not to delete data from the wrong drive.
