If you add data to a DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD+R, DVD+R
(Double Layer) or HD DVD-R disc that you have already recorded to,
you might not be able to read the added data under some
circumstances. For example, it cannot be read under 16-bit operating
systems, such as Windows 98SE and Windows Me, while in Windows
NT4 you will need Service Pack 6 or later, and in Windows 2000, you
will need Service Pack 2. In addition to this, some DVD-ROM and DVD-
ROM / CD-R/RW drives cannot read this added data regardless of the
operating system.

When you back up a DVD disc, be sure that the source drive supports
recording to DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R
