Subjects Concerning the CD/DVD-Rewriter
Normal Discs are pressed from a digital, glass master and then sealed. In the case of blank

Please avoid the following when using recordable/rewriteable discs - especially blanks -
that have never before been used:
•
radiation by direct sunlight (UVA/UVB)
•
scratches and damage to the disk surface
•
extreme temperatures
