■ Data deleted (erased) from a CD-RW and DVD-RW, DVD+RW and
DVD-RAM disc cannot be recovered. Check the content of the disc
carefully before you delete it. If multiple drives that can write data to
discs are connected, be careful not to delete data from the wrong drive.
■ In writing to a DVD-R/-R DL/-RW, DVD+R/+R DL/+RW or DVD-RAM
disc, some disc space is required for file management, so you may not
be able to write the full capacity of the disc.
■ Since the disc is based on the DVD standard, it will be filled with dummy
data if the written data is less than about 1 GB. Even if you write only a
small amount of data, it might take time to fill in the dummy data.
■ DVD-RAM formatted by FAT32 cannot be read in Windows 2000
without DVD-RAM Driver Software.
■ When multiple drives that can write data to discs are connected, be
careful not to write to the wrong drive.
■ Be sure to connect the universal AC adaptor before you write or rewrite.
■ Before you enter sleep/hibernation mode, be sure to finish DVD-RAM
writing. Writing is finished if you can eject DVD-RAM media.
■ Be sure to close all other software programs except the writing
software.
■ Do not run software such as a screen saver, which can put a heavy load
on the CPU.
■ Operate the computer in the full-power mode. Do not use power-saving
features.
■ Do not write while virus check software is running. Wait for it to finish,
and then disable virus detection programs including any software that
checks files automatically in the background.
■ Do not use hard disk utilities, including those intended to enhance HDD
access speed. They may cause unstable operation and data damage.
■ Write from the computer’s HDD to the CD/DVD. Do not try to write from
shared devices such as a LAN server or any other network device.
■ Writing with software other than TOSHIBA Disc Creator is not
recommended.
