Making Data DVDs Using Easy CD Creator
DVD-Recordable technology, like CD-RW, allows you to record and
erase information on DVDs. The advantage of DVD-Recordable is
the amount of data that a single DVD-Recordable disc can hold: up
to several GBs as compared to 650 MB on a blank 74-minute CD-R or
CD-RW disc, or 700 MB on a blank 80-minute CD-R disc.
Here are just some of the things you should know about a data
DVD:
■ Unlike a video DVD, a data DVD is used for data storage only
and cannot be played on your home DVD player.
■ DVD-Recordable drives can only read DVD-Recordable discs
manufactured specifically for the type of DVD-Recordable
drive. For example, only DVD-RW drives can read a DVD-RW
disc, and only DVD-RAM drives can read a DVD-RAM disc.
Making a Data DVD
To make a data DVD:
1 Start a new data DVD project. From the Easy CD Creator
Project Selector window, click Make a Data CD, then click
Data DVD Project. An untitled data DVD project appears.
