Section 1. Getting Started
About Software
In order to record on DVD±R/RW and CD-R/RW discs you will need to
have mastering, packet writing, or duplication software installed on your
computer system. If you purchased a retail kit from Plextor, you'll get
software packages that include such software.
You can use Roxio's Easy CD Creator DVD Edition to burn both DVDs
and CDs. The software lets you burn and share anything on CD or DVD,
including music, photos, and videos. You can also back up your critical
data to a CD or DVD.
One component of Easy CD Creator is DirectCD, which makes the
Plextor PX-708UF drive as easy to use as a hard disk drive. You can
drag and drop files, rename files, delete files, and create new directories
right on the recordable CD or DVD disc. You can even save files
directly from your word processing software, spreadsheet, or other
application directly to the disc. (For more information about Easy CD
Creator, install this application and examine the help files.)
For details on other software packages that are available for writing to
DVDs or CDs, please visit the web sites of the companies whose
software you are interested in, refer to their user's manuals, or look at
the help option within the software. A list of various software packages
that you can use with your Plextor drive can be found in the
Support/Compatibility section of www.plextor.com.
