adapter.
Your optical disc drive supports only circular discs. Do not use discs in any other shape
(star, heart, card, etc.) or damaged discs, as it may cause your VAIO computer to
malfunction.
DVD-Video format data can be written to DVD+R (single layer or dual layer),

Recording format data can be written to DVD-R (single layer or dual layer), DVD-RW,

Your VAIO computer is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc
(CD) standard. DualDiscs and some music discs encoded with copyright protection
technologies do not conform to the CD standard. Therefore, these discs may not be
compatible with the computer.
When you buy pre-recorded or blank discs for use with your VAIO computer, be sure to
read the notices on the disc package carefully to check both playback and recording
compatibility with your computer’s optical disc drives. Sony does NOT guarantee the
compatibility of VAIO optical disc drives with discs that are not compliant with the official
“CD,” “DVD,” or “Blu-ray Disc” standard. USING NON-COMPLIANT DISCS CAN
CAUSE FATAL DAMAGE TO YOUR VAIO COMPUTER OR CREATE SOFTWARE
CONFLICTS AND CAUSE SYSTEM HANGING.
For inquiries about disc formats, contact the individual publisher of the pre-recorded disc
or the manufacturer of the recordable disc.
