Operating Basics
Before writing or rewriting
Please observe the following points when you write or rewrite the data.
We recommend the following manufacturers of CD-R and CD-RW
media. Media quality can affect write or rewrite success rates.
TOSHIBA has confirmed the operation of CD-R and CD-RW media of the
manufacturers above. Operation of other media cannot be guaranteed.
The actual number of rewrites to CD-RW is affected by the quality of the
disc and the way it is used.
Be sure to connect the AC adaptor when you write or rewrite.
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 at full power. Do not use power-saving features.
Do not write while virus check software is running. Wait for it to finish,
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 hard
disk drive access speeds. They may cause unstable operation and
damage data.
Write from the computer's hard disk drive to the CD. Do not try to write
from shared devices such as a LAN server or any other network device.
Writing with software other than Sonic TOSHIBA Disc Creator has not
been confirmed. Therefore, operation with other software cannot be
guaranteed.
