DVD-RAM Media
Unlike standard DVD media, you do not need special DVD burning
software to write or read DVD-RAM discs on a computer. You can
access these discs like a floppy disk or hard drive. You can even write a
DVD-RAM disc with a set-top box, then read it on the PX-750 drive.
The PX-750 supports reading and writing with 2.6-GB (version 1) and
4.7-GB (version 2) DVD-RAM discs.
CD-ROM Media
You can use these types of CD media:
•
CD-ROM
: You can immediately play or read prerecorded compact
discs, such as audio CDs and data discs.
•
CD-R
: Recordable CD. You can record on these discs, but only
once. You can also read them.
•
CD-RW
: Normal Speed, High Speed and Ultra Speed ReWritable
CD. These discs support recording and re-recording (up to 1,000
times). You can also read them.
To achieve a certain writing speed, you must use the appropriate media.
To achieve 40X CD-R writing speed you must use certified 40X media;
and to achieve 24X CD-RW writing speed you must use Ultra Speed
CD-RW media.
Remember:
•
Using Normal Speed CD-RW discs (that is, NS-RW media) you can
rewrite at 4X.
•
Using High Speed CD-RW discs (HS-RW media), you can rewrite at
4X or 10X.
•
Using Ultra Speed CD-RW discs (US-RW media) in this drive, you
can rewrite at up to 24X.
