Writing CD/DVDs on DVD-R/-RW drive
❑ Since the disc is based on the DVD standard, it might 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.

❑ Do not run software such as a screen saver, which can put a heavy load on the
CPU.

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 Drag'n Drop CD+DVD is not recommended.
