Precautions on Use
System Requirements
The CRW3200UX drive is designed to operate in the following computer
environment. If your computer does not meet these requirements, the
CRW3200UX drive may not operate or write at the maximum speed.
Computer (PC/AT compatible)
• CPU: Pentium II-class or higher, 300 MHz or faster
• RAM: 64 MB or more
64 MB or more is required (128 MB is recommended) for Windows 2000
Professional, while 128 MB or more is required (256 MB is recommended)
for Windows XP.
• CD-ROM drive
Note
• A CD-ROM drive other than the CRW3200UX drive is required to install the
device drivers.
• The CRW3200UX drive cannot be used to boot the computer or to set up an
operating system.
• Hard drive space
Writing data on a CD-R/RW disc requires 50 MB to 100 MB of free space as
a working area on the hard drive. When writing data on a CD-R/RW disc after
creating an image file, there must be enough free space on the hard drive to
store the image file in addition to the working area (a total of up to 900 MB).
However, hard drive space for image files is not required when directly
writing onto a CD-R/RW disc from a hard drive or CD-ROM using the
CRW3200UX drive (on-the-fly writing).
Image file
You can collect the data files to be written on a CD-R/RW disc into a single image
file.
The image file is useful for writing the same data onto multiple discs. For details,
refer to the documentation that comes with the CD writing software.
