Compact Disc
Known by its abbreviation, CD, a compact disc is a polycarbonate with one or
more metal layers capable of storing digital information. The most prevalent types
of compact discs are those used by the music industry to store digital recordings
and CD-Rs used to store computer data. Both of these types of compact disc are
read-only, which means that once the data has been recorded onto them, they can
only be read, or played.
Another type of compact disc, called CD-RWs, can have their data erased and
overwritten by new data. Currently, erasable optical storage is too slow to be used
as a computer's main storage facility, but as the speed improves and the cost comes
down, optical storage devices are becoming a popular alternative to tape systems as
a backup method.

CD-R Versus CD-RW
CD-R (compact disc, recordable) and CD-RW (compact disc, rewriteable) media is
very similar, but there are some key differences.

DVD Formats
Why So Many DVD Formats?
The crucial difference among the standards is
on which standards each manufacturer adheres to.
Similar to the old VHS/Beta tape wars when VCRs
hit the markets, different manufacturers support
different standards. Often called a "format war",
the industry and consumers are still waiting to see
format will emerge as the industry standard.

Plus or Minus - What's The Difference?
The different variations on the term DVD (e.g. +R, -R, -ROM, and so on) describe
the way data is stored on or written to the disc itself. These are called physical
formats.
DVD+R and DVD+RW
DVD+R and DVD+RW formats are supported by Philips, Sony, HewlettPackard, Dell, Ricoh, Yamaha and others.
DVD+Ris a recordable DVD format similar to CD-R. A DVD+R can record data
only once and then the data becomes permanent on the disc. The disc cannot be
recorded onto a second time.
DVD+RWis a re-recordable format similar to CD-RW. The data on a DVD+RW
disc can be erased and recorded over numerous times without damaging the
medium.
Note: DVDs that have been made using a +R/+RW device can be read by most
commercial DVD-ROM players.
DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD-RAM
These formats are supported by Panasonic, Toshiba, Apple Computer, Hitachi,
NEC, Pioneer, Samsung and Sharp. These formats are also supported by the DVD
Forum.
DVD-R is a recordable DVD format similar to CD-R and DVD+R. A DVD-R can
record data only once and then the data becomes permanent on the disc. The disc
cannot be recorded onto a second time. There also are two additional standards for
DVD-R disks: DVD-RG for general use, and DVD-RA for authoring, which is
used for mastering DVD video or data and is not typically available to the general
public.
DVD-RW is a re-recordable format similar to CD-RW or DVD+RW. The data on
a DVD-RW disc can be erased and recorded over numerous times without
damaging the medium. DVDs created by a -R/-RW device can be read by most
commercial DVD-ROM players.
6.3

DVD-RAM discs can be recorded and erased repeatedly but are compatible only
with devices manufactured by the companies that support the DVD-RAM format.
DVD-RAM discs are typically housed in cartridges.
DVD-ROM was the first DVD standard to hit the market and is a read-only
format. The video or game content is burned onto the DVD once and the DVD will
run on any DVD-ROM-equipped device. DVD-ROMs are similar to CDs.
DVD+R DL and DVD-R DL
Dual layer technology is supported by a range of manufacturers including Dell,
HP, Verbatim, Philips, Sony, Yamaha and others. As the name suggests, dual layer
technology provides two individual recordable layers on a single-sided DVD disc.
Dual Layer is more commonly called Double Layer in the consumer market, and
can be seen written as DVD+R DL or DVD-R DL.
DVD+R DL (also called DVD+R9) is a Dual Layer writeable DVD+R.
DVD-R DL (also called DVD-R9) is a Dual Layer writeable DVD-R. The dual
layered discs can hold 7.95GB
The dual layered discs (DVD+R9 and DVD-R9) can hold 7.95GB and double
sided dual layer (called dvd-18) can hold 15.9GB.
Blu-ray
Blu-ray Disc (BD) - uses a 405nm-wavelength blue-violet laser technology, in
contrast to the 650nm-wavelength red laser technology used in traditional DVD
formats. The rewritable Blu-ray disc, with a data transfer rate of 36Mbps (1x
speed) can hold up to 25GB of data on a single-layer disc and 50GB on a duallayer disc. On a 50GB disc, this translates into 9 hours of high-definition (HD)
video or approximately 23 hours of standard-definition (SD) video. The Blu-ray
format was developed jointly by Sony, Samsung, Sharp, Thomson, Hitachi,
Matsushita, Pioneer and Philips, Mistubishi and LG Electronics.
CD/DVD Burner
Most computers will have a CD/DVD burner as a standard feature. Usually it will
have Dual Layer support (DL), which means it can read and write DVD that
support DL.

How to Burn a CD or DVD in Windows Vista or XP
In Windows Vista, it is very easy to burn CDs or DVDs without having to
purchase additional software. If your computer includes a CD or DVD recorder,
you can copy files to a writeable optical disc. This process is called burning a disc.
By default, Windows burns discs in the Live File System format (UDF), but you
can also choose to burn discs in the Mastered format (ISO 9660).
Note: Without 3rd party software, a Windows XP system can only burn data in ISO
9660 (Mastered) format or Audio CD format.
You can use Windows to burn a data disc, which is useful for storing, archiving,
and sharing files among different computers. If you want to make a disc that will
play in a music or video player, you should burn the disc using a music or video
program.
Live File System (UDF)
Now there are some more decisions to make. You can create a so called 'Live File
System disc' (also called an UDF-disc) or you can create a so called 'Mastered
disc'.
If you want to use the disc as a flash drive or floppy disk, you better choose for a
'Live File System disc'. The Live File System disc (UDF) disc is only has to be
compatible with Windows Vista and Windows XP. If you want to create a Live
File System disc (UDF) which also has to be compatible with other operating
systems, you click 'Show formatting options' and click on the 'Change version'
link.
The compatibility of a UDF disc is with other computers depends on which UDF
version is chosen.
 UDF 1.02: This can be read by Windows 98 and some Apple computers.
 UDF 1.5: Is compatible with Windows 2000, XP and Server 2003.
 UDF 2.01: Compatible with Windows XP and Server 2003. Earlier Apple
computers can possibly not read these discs. This is the version which will
automatically be chosen when you don't choose another version manually.
(Default)
 UDF 2.5: Specially designed for Windows Vista. Only use this when the
disc only has to be read by Vista computers.

How to Burn UDF (Packet Writing) in Window XP
For this you must install a third party UDF package. These usually come as part of
a complete suite of programs for burning CDs/DVDs, which includes a
“mastering” program to burn ISO 9660 format (single sessions). Most Windows
XP computer systems will include one of these major packages:
 Direct CD, part of Easy CD Creator (version 5.02 or later), or Drag to Disk
(its new name with version 6.0), from www.roxio.com. While Easy CD
Creator version 4 upgraded to 4.05 often will work if installed on its own,
the related Direct CD will not.
 InCD, part of Nero, from www.nero.com or www.nero.com. Get the latest
version. Version 3.21 of InCD, specifically created for Windows XP, is now
available for download.
 DLA. This is available as a stand-alone item from Sonic. DLA also is part of
the RecordNowMax Platinum package. Sonic is the parent company of
Roxio. You can get a Free versions of DLA and a Lite version of
RecordNow are available for Hewlett-Packard drives from www.hp.com.
Any of the “mastering” programs in
these suites also will create Audio CDs
from simple WAV files and from
compressed MP3 files.
Setting Write Speed in
Windows XP
In My Computer, right-click on the
CD-drive, then click Properties.
There should be:
 a “Recording” page with a
check box to “Enable Recording
on this drive”;
 a pane to change the folder used
as work space during the actual
writing (which needs to have as
much space available as the
capacity of the CD you wish to
write); and
 a box to let you specify the speed of the drive.
It is recommended that you manually choose a speed in the provided box,
especially if you do choose to use the technique with CD-RW media, for which the
drive will usually not be capable of the speed assumed (the faster one, for CD-R
writing).

Burn a UDF CD using Vista and Windows 7
UDF 2.01 is the default format setting for burning CDs/DVDs on a Windows Vista
system. UDF format allows you to use the CD or DVD just like a flash drive; you
and add or erase files at any time. The downside of this format is that it may not
be readable on other computer systems.
1. Insert a blank CD or DVD into your computer's CD or DVD recorder. If the
AutoPlay appears, select “Burn a DVD/CD data disc”. If your AutoPlay is
disabled, then double-click on the CD/DVD icon in Windows Explorer.
2. In the dialog box that appears, enter data disc title (16 characters maximum).
Click the arrow next to Show formatting options.

3. In the Burn a Disc dialog box, type a name for this disc
4. The default is UDF 2.01. To change it, click Change version, and then
click the down arrow to show the list box:
5. Click OK, and then click Next to prepare the disc. This will take a few
seconds. The Formatting screen will appear. Wait for the progress bar to
finish. This will take a few minutes.

1/31/2012
6. Once the CD is formatted, you can use any Windows File Management
technique such as cut and paste, drag and drop or send to, to copy files to the
CD.
Add More Data Later
If you previously formatted a CD-R, CD-RW, or DVD-Recordable disc as UDF
(Live system), you can add more files to it until the CD is full.
This is known as multi-session. The CD or DVD does not have to be a RW
(Read/Write) to support multi-session.
Erase a disc
If you created a mastered format CD/DVD on a CD-RW or DVD-RW discs, you
can be erased so you can write new data to them even though the disc is RW. You
can however, reformat the disc and rewrite new data on to it. On a UDF format
disc, you can erase a few files from it, even if the disc is not RW. Erasing file

from a UDF disc, does not reused any file space, it simply marks it as being
deleting.
Updating Files
New file can be added to a UDF formatted disc. Copying file with the same
filename will be over-written on a RW disc. However, copy files with the same
filename on a CD-R can still be done. Even though the directory entry will show
only one updated file, the new file is actually written to a new blank area of the
CD-R. You can keep doing this, until the disc if full.
Burn ISO 9660 Format (Mastered)
If you have chosen to burn a mastered disc format, you can drag and drop file to
the Windows Explorer window, but file are not written immediately. The files
displayed are waiting to be burned to disc. Notice the down arrow in the file icon,
indicating this.

After you have placed all of the files in the window, click Burn to disc to start the

How to Create a Data CD/DVD in
Windows XP
In this lesson you will learn to burn a data CD using native Windows XP software. No
3rd party software (ie Roxio, Nero, etc) is involved in this process.
Windows WritingWizard
Windows Writing Wizard is included in a Windows XP system. Window Writing
Wizard only has the capability to create ISO 9660 (Mastered) format. That is why
a most XP system comes with some type of CD writing software like Roxio or
Nero.
Using AutoPlay
First make sure that all files are closed that you might wish to copy to a CD.
1.
Insert a blank CD in the read/write CD drive. A dialog box will appear on
the monitor screen (Figure 1).
If the Autoplay
dialog box does not
appear, Open My
