Important message
Before you write or rewrite to any of the media supported by the DVD
Super Multi drive, please read and follow all of the setup and operating
instructions in this section. If you fail to do so, you may find that the DVD
Super Multi drive drive may not function properly, and you may fail to write
or rewrite information successfully. This may cause you to either lose data
or incur other damage to the drive or media.
Before writing or rewriting
Based on TOSHIBA's limited compatibility testing, we suggest the
following manufacturers of CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual
Layer), DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R (Double Layer), DVD+RW or DVD-
RAM media, however, it must be noted that disc quality can affect write
or rewrite success rates. Please also be aware that in no event does
TOSHIBA guarantee the operation, quality or performance of any disc.
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.
