Important Message; Legal Footnotes; Before Writing Or Rewriting - Toshiba TECRA M5 User Manual

When writing to media using an optical drive, always connect the AC
adaptor to a power plug socket. If data is written while powered by the
batteries, writing may sometimes fail due to low battery power and data
loss may occur.

+RW/-RAM discs, read and follow all setup and operating instructions in
this section. If you fail to do so, the DVD Super Multi drive may not function
properly, and you may fail to write or rewrite, lose data or incur other
damage.
