TOSHIBA has confirmed the operation of CD-R and CD-RW media of the
manufacturers above. Operation of other media cannot be guaranteed.
CD-RW can generally be rewritten about 1,000 times. However, the
actual number of rewrites is affected by the quality of the media 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
HDD access speed. They may cause unstable operation and damage
data.
