DVD burner

The DVD burner drive is an optional feature. Recording methods supported by the disk drive:
Disc-at-once, Track-at-once, Session-at-once, Packet writing. You can write to CD-R, CD-
RW, DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM and dual-layer media.
Burner software
You need to install additional software (burner software) to utilize full functionality of the DVD
burner, depending on the operating system.
Examples:
The Windows XP operating system does not include burner functionality. This is why the
burner software is included. This software is included on the CD supplied with the device.
Insert the CD in the drive, run setup and follow the instructions on the screen.
The Windows 7 and Windows 2008 Server operating systems include burner functionality.
No additional burner software is provided in this case. Refer to the operating system
documentation for instructions on using the DVD burner.
NOTICE
When starting the burner software the first time, no data medium should be inserted in the
drive. This is because data carriers with errors can interrupt the automatic hard drive
recognition. This makes it impossible to correctly display the possible burner functions.
Notes on burning optical data carriers
CAUTION
Danger of data errors when burning data carriers!
Burning is permissible only in an undisturbed environment, i.e. shock and vibration stress
must be avoided. Because of heavy fluctuation in the quality of CD-Rs, data may be
corrupted in a burning session, even if no error message is initially displayed. The written
data can only be verified by comparing these with the source. To be on the safe side, data
should be verified after every burning session.

Removable hard disks

The removable racks support hot plugging in a RAID1 system. If, however, you have
configured a non-RAID system, you will need to turn the device off before exchanging the
rack.
