You might not be able to use the "Disc Backup" function of TOSHIBA 

Disc Creator to back up a DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD-RW, 

DVD+R, DVD+R (Double Layer) or DVD+RW disc that was made with 

other software on a different optical media recorder.

■

If you add data to a DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD+R or DVD+R 

(Double Layer) disc that you have already recorded to, you might not be 

able to read the added data under some circumstances. For example, it 

cannot be read under 16-bit operating systems, such as Windows 98SE 

and Windows Me, while in Windows NT4 you will need Service Pack 6 

or later, and in Windows 2000, you will need Service Pack 2. In addition 

to this, some DVD-ROM and DVD-ROM / CD-R/RW drives cannot read 

this added data regardless of the operating system.

■

TOSHIBA Disc Creator does not support recording to DVD-RAM discs - 

to achieve this you should use Windows Explorer or another similar 

utility.

■

When you back up a DVD disc, be sure that the source drive supports 

recording to DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R 

(Double Layer) or DVD+RW media - if this is not the case then the 

source disc might not be backed up correctly.

■

When you back up a DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD-RW, DVD+R, 

DVD+R (Double Layer) or DVD+RW disc, be sure to use the same type 

of disc.

■
