Important Message; Before Writing Or Rewriting - Toshiba Satellite Pro R50-B series User Manual

Writing discs
You can use the DVD Super Multi drive to write data to either CD-R, CD-
RW, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW or
DVD-RAM discs.
When writing information to media using an optical drive, you should
always ensure that you connect the AC adaptor to a live electrical outlet. It
is possible that, if data is written while powered by the battery pack, the
write process might sometimes fail due to low battery power. In these
instances, data loss might occur.

Important message

Before you write or rewrite to any of the media supported by the optical
disc drive, read and follow all of the setup and operating instructions in this
section.If you fail to do so, you might find that the optical disc drive might
not function properly, and you might fail to write or rewrite information
successfully. This might cause you to either lose data or incur other
damage to the drive or media.
Disclaimer

Given the technological limitations of current optical disc writing drives, you
may experience unexpected writing or rewriting errors due to disc quality or
problems with hardware devices. In view of this, it is good practice to make
two or more copies of important data, in case of any undesired change or
loss of the recorded contents.
