Hard Drive Space
When writing to a CD-R/RW disc, you will need a working area (50 to 100 MB of
free space) on the hard drive. If you want to create an image file containing all the
data to be written to the CD-R/RW disc, in addition to the working area, you will
need as much hard drive space as that data (up to 900 MB in total). However, this
additional hard drive space for the image file is not needed when you are writing
directly from a hard drive or CD-ROM drive, etc. (on-the-fly writing).
