Creating CDs using your CD-RW or
DVD/CD-RW drive
You can use your CD-RW or DVD/CD-RW drive to create CDs.
Creating data CDs
Use Roxio Easy CD Creator to create data CDs. Data CDs are ideal for backing
up important files such as tax records, letters, MP3s, or photos.
To create a data CD:
1
Insert a blank CD-R or CD-RW disc into your CD-RW or combination
DVD/CD-RW drive on your docking station.
Important We recommend that you do not use your notebook for
other tasks while creating a CD.
Important If you record copyrighted material on a CD, you need
permission from the copyright owner. Otherwise, you may
be violating copyright law and be subject to payment of
damages and other remedies. If you are uncertain about
your rights, contact your legal advisor.
Important You must have a CD-RW or combination DVD/CD-RW
drive in your docking station to create a CD. To determine
the type of drive in the module bay, examine the drive tray’s
plastic cover and compare the logo to those listed in
“Identifying drive types” on page 88. To be able to create
a CD, the imprint must say
Recordable Rewriteable . If the
drive you want to use is not in one of the bays, you will
need to swap modules. For more information about
swapping modules, see “Changing drives” on page 166.
