Recording Information on a DVD
If your Mac mini has a SuperDrive, you can record your own home movies on a blank
DVD±R, DVD±RW, or DVD+R DL disc. You can also record other kinds of digital data (for
example, you can back up your files).
To record data to a DVD-R disc using the Finder:
1 Insert a blank DVD±R, DVD±RW, or DVD+R DL disc in the drive.
2 In the dialog that appears, enter a name for the disc and select a format.
3 Double-click the DVD icon that appears on the desktop, and drag files and folders to it.
4 Choose File > Burn Disc, or select the disc on the desktop and drag it to the Burn Disc
icon in the Dock.
