The CD-RW drive allows
you to create your own
CDs. You can buy two
types of media: CD-R and
CD-RW.
CD-R media can be played
on most of the newer CD
players, CD-ROM, and
DVD-ROM drives. CD-R
media can be written to
only once. However, you
can write to CD-RW media
using multiple recording
sessions until you Close out
the disc.
CD-RW media can be used
to make backups of your
personal CDs or hard disk.
These discs are reusable
and can be erased and
rewritten to numerous
times.
For more information about
using the CD-ROM, CD-RW,
DVD-ROM, or DVD-R/RW
drives, refer to the My
Presario - Learning More CD.

you begin creating CDs.

Help you must load Adobe Acrobat Reader from the My Presario—Learning
More CD.
Media Uses
Audio Create personal music CDs with your favourite music
tracks and MP3/WMA files.
Data Create a data CD to store data, such as files or folders
from the hard disk. This feature is useful for backing up
important files or sharing data with other people.
Direct CD Write files directly to a CD-R/CD-RW just like you copy files
to a disk drive. Drag-and-drop files from one drive to
another in Microsoft Explorer without accessing Easy CD
