How can I get the full 4.7 GB of data on a disc?
The total usable disc space available on 4.7GB DVD-R/RW media is approximately
4.37 Gigabytes. The apparent discrepancy is because DVD formats use one billion
bytes (1000 x 1000 x 1000) to represent a gigabyte, whereas traditional data storage
calculations use a 1024 x 1024 x 1024 value. This amounts to an apparent 7%
difference in the total number of bytes when DVD capacities are compared with the
traditional calculation; in other words, 4.37 GB = 4.7 billion bytes.

Please contact your duplicator manufacturer to confirm that they have qualified this or other Pioneer drives for your specific duplicator model. Most duplicators have proprietary firmware for the installed drives which may not be compatible with a newer drive.
- Page 3 18. Is it ok to clean my Pioneer drive with a cleaning disc? Pioneer does not recommend the use of cleaning disc products for DVD drives. Cleaning discs were originally designed for CD drives and could damage DVD drive components. For an out-of-warranty drive, if the unit begins to act oddly and looks very dirty, you might try a short blast of Electronics-grade (sterile, filtered, moisture- free) canned air aimed at the center of the drive.
