Using a recordable drive

You can use your DVD/CD-RW or DVD-R/RW drive to create data CDs, music
CDs, or copies of CDs. You can use your DVD-R/RW drive to create data and
video DVDs. For more information about your drive's capabilities, see
"Identifying drive types" on page 91.

Creating data CDs and DVDs

are ideal for backing up important files such as tax records, letters, MP3s, digital
movies, or photos. For information on creating music CDs, see "Creating music
CDs" on page 112.
Use your movie creator software to create video DVDs. For more information
