Write-Protecting an Optical Disk

Write-Protecting an Optical Disk
Each side of an optical disk can be write-protected by sliding the
write-protect button in the direction of the arrow on the cartridge (see
Figure 2-2).
With rewritable optical disks, write-protecting the disk prevents
overwriting existing files and prevents any additional file being written
to the disk.
With write-once optical disks, existing files cannot be altered or erased
regardless of whether or not the write-protect button has been set.
However, setting the button to write-protect prevents writing additional
files to the disk.
