Before Writing Or Rewriting - Toshiba Tecra S3 User Manual

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.
CD-R:
TAIYO YUDEN CO., LTD.
MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL CORPORATION
RICOH Co., Ltd.
Multi-Speed and High-Speed CD-RW:
MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL CORPORATION
RICOH Co., Ltd.
Ultra-Speed CD-RW:
MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL CORPORATION
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 RecordNow! has not been
confirmed. Therefore, operation with other software cannot be
guaranteed.
