System Configuration
In order to use the CRW8424E drive, your computer system will need to meet the
following set of requirements.
Computer
The minimum system requirements for using the CRW8424E drive are as follows:
Any fully PC/AT-compatible computer.
A Pentium-class or higher CPU running at 200MHz or faster.
OS: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 98 SE (Second Edition), or Windows
NT4.0 with Service Pack 3/4/5.
A 5.25-inch drive bay for mounting the drive (if the CRW8424E is expanded)
Software
The software requirements for using the CRW8424E drive are as follows:
CD writing software. This software must support the CRW8424E drive for
writing to CD-R or CD-RW.
For details about how to install and use the software, refer to the documentation that
came with it.
When temporarily storing data on a hard disk prior to writing to CD-R/RW, you
will need an extra area of 50 ~ 100MB free hard disk space. When creating an
image file of the data on hard disk before writing to CD-R/RW, you will need as
much hard disk space as the original data, plus an extra 50 ~ 100MB. However,
this extra area is not needed when backing up directly from CD-ROM.
Data is written to disc much more reliably when writing from an image file, eliminat-
ing the likelihood of errors occurring. Furthermore, this solution is ideal when
making multiple copies of discs since the original data is backed up to hard disk as an
image file.
