The formatting process
The formatting process is an automated multi-step process. The first step mounts the
disc as mount exclusive. This is necessary for the formatting to be done. Once the disc is
formatted, the disc is unmounted from the drive, and then immediately mounted back into
the drive, but this time it is not mounted exclusive. This second mounting allows the
volume name tag to be read (which will now be Untitled DVD-RAM), and listed in the
MediaFinder window. The disc will then be unmounted and placed back into the carousel.
At this point, you may rename the disc (if you wish) by highlighting it in the MediaFinder
window and typing in a new name.
If there is a question as to the type of formatting that a DVD-RAM disc has, highlight the
disc and press ⌘-I to bring up the 'Get Info' window. This window will show the formatting
of the disc.
Note: Formatting a disc will use approximately 8.3MB of space on the disc,
reducing the total disc capacity for additional data by that amount.
Writing to a DVD-RAM Disc
To write to a DVD-RAM disc, it must be mounted using the Mount Exclusive command. In
addition to giving the user the ability to write to the disc, Mount Exclusive also ensures
that no other user has access to the disc while it is in this mode.
To Mount Exclusive, highlight the disc in the MediaFinder window, and from the Browser
pulldown menu, select Mount Exclusive.
This will  mount the disc into a Changer drive. You will see in the MediaFinder window
that the disc is listed as 'Exclusive Owner'.
To write to this disc, when the disc icon appears on the desktop, do one of the following:
•   Double click on the disc icon on the desktop to open a window for that disc, then drag
the desired file(s) onto that open window
or
•  Drag the desired file(s) onto the disc icon on the desktop
When either of these two options is selected, a status window will open, displaying the
progress of the writing operation.
