Record slide shows or digital video onto DVD-RAM, DVD+R DL,
DVD-R DL, DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW and DVD-RW discs.
•
Play DVD-RAM, DVD-ROM, DVD+R DL, DVD-R DL, DVD+R,
DVD+RW, DVD-R, and DVD-RW discs.

Record data or audio onto writable or rewritable CD media.
•
Play music CDs.
•
Save photos and other images on rewritable or writable CDs.
•
Create a CD or DVD “sneakernet” to share information with
colleagues—just use software such as Roxio’s Drag-to-Disc to drag
and drop files onto DVD+R, DVD+RW, CD-R or CD-RW media,
then continue adding files and sharing the same disc.
•
Archive images and video to DVD or CD.

Master new software programs on DVD or CD.
About Software
In order to record on DVD±R DL, 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.
Roxio’s Easy Media Creator software is one software suite that lets you
burn DVDs and CDs. The software lets you burn and share anything on
CD or DVD, including music, photos, and videos; and you can easily
back up your critical data to a CD or DVD. One component of Roxio is
Drag-to-Disc, which makes the Plextor PX-750 drive as easy to use as a
hard disk drive. (For more information about Roxio, install this
application and examine the help files.)
