dia manufactured by major media manufacturers. Therefore, this
drive can be used with little concern for compatibility issues.

  

Ready-to-use software is provided.

2.2 The Specification of TEAC DW-224PUK

The DW-224PUK is a CD-RW/DVD drive used by connecting to the
USB terminal of the computer. As this product uses the TEAC DW-
224E as an internal drive unit, the operating system or application soft-
ware may indicate the drive as ”TEAC DW-224E” in some cases. The
drive can perform the following.

  

Reading the CD-ROM/ DVD-ROM media
The drive can read information written on a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
media.

  

Playing a music CD, Video CD, and DVD-Video
The drive can play a music CD and Video CD/DVD-Video using
your computer.

It is recommended to connect the drive to a USB 2.0 interface
for playing a DVD-Video. When playing it by connecting to the
USB 1.1 interface, frame dropouts or sound dropouts are caused
due to limited data transfer rate.

  

Writing data on the CD-R/CD-RW media, creating a back-up copy
of your CD
You can store your computer data on the rewritable CD-R or CD-
RW media. You can create an original music CD and play it with
other CD players by preparing a music file in advance. You can
also create a back-up copy of your important CD.

Some commercially-available CDs have a special structure. Note
that a back-up copy of such CDs is impossible.

2.3 Procedure Outline for Installation and Operation

The procedure outline that must be followed before using the drive is
described below. Refer to each section of this document for details of
