Packet Writing
This method is used to record data onto a disc on a file-by-file basis. This
method divides a track into small segments called packets so that data can be
written on a packet-by-packet basis, which means that you can write data in
much the same way as you copy data to a floppy or hard drive. Since the data
can be written easily, packet writing is proper to daily data backup. Packet
writing also enables you to add packets to a disc as long as there is free space
available on the disc.
Discs need to be formatted for packet writing prior to use.
Formatting a CD-RW disc using packet writing software reduces its storage
capacity by about 100 MB since packet writing requires exclusive space for
itself.
For CD-R discs, deleting data means masking data but not actually removing
data. Therefore, actual free space in a CD-R never be increased even if data is
deleted.
Audio Master Quality Recording (High quality audio writing mode)
This method enables you to record high quality data that can be played back
with the 1.4m/s linear velocity.
Audio Master Quality Recording (High quality audio writing mode) is enabled
with the 4X speed Disc-at-Once writing method.
Maximum recording time is 63 minutes for a 650 MB CD-R disc and 68 minutes
for a 700 MB CD-R disc.
CD-MRW (CD Mount Rainier ReWriting)
This method is a new standard of packet writing for a CD-RW disc and supports
defect control by the drive, background formatting, and disc ejecting during
formatting. It enables you to use a CD-RW disc like a floppy disk.
Formatting a CD-RW disc using CD-MRW reduces its storage capacity by about
150 MB since CD-MRW requires exclusive disc space.
