Data Disc Tips - HP z558 Software Manual

Data disc tips

When storing data files on a disc, it is important to
note that:
You can add new data files to a CD-R,
■
DVD-R, or a DVD+R in a later recording
session, until the disc is full. With DVD+R
or DVD-R discs, insert your partially
recorded DVD, click the Wrench icon to display
the Options window, click Data, select the first
Write-Once DVD Compatibility option, and
then click OK.
When you record files that have the same name
■
as previously recorded files, Sonic DigitalMedia Plus
updates the file and the previous version is
overwritten.
Sonic DigitalMedia Plus allows you to change the
■
names of files you want to record and the files that
were previously recorded.
As you select data files to record to your disc,
■
Sonic DigitalMedia Plus calculates and displays the
amount of recording space used on your disc.

If your recording fails, manually select a slower
■
recording speed, if available, each time you make a
recording. Refer to the Help menu in your selected
software program for more information about
selecting a slower recording speed.
An appendable disc can have additional files
added to it, if there is disc space available.
Recorded audio CDs are closed-session discs
that are not appendable.
