Supported Discs
CD-R discs
• The CRW-70 drive can write onto these discs at 1X, 2X, 4X, 8X or 12X
speed.
• These discs can be read/played on a CD-ROM drive or a CD player.
• 12X-speed writing is enabled with Partial CAV method. (

• Before writing, check the writing speeds your disc supports.
CD-RW discs
• The CRW-70 drive can write/rewrite at 2X or 4X speed.
• These discs can be read/played on a device (e.g. CD-ROM drive) that
supports “CD-RW.”
Note that some discs support only 2X speed.
High Speed CD-RW discs
• The CRW-70 drive can write/rewrite at 4X or 8X speed.
• These discs can be read/played on a CD-RW drive that bears the High Speed
CD-RW logo or a device (e.g. CD-ROM drive) that supports “CD-RW.”

→P. 41) for writing/rewriting onto
High-Speed CD-RW discs, you can select the 4X

10X Full CAV method. For
more information, refer to the documentation that came with your CD writing
software. (Your CD writing software must support the Full CAV method, as

CD-RW disc with an application.
• In order to write, erase, read or play High Speed CD-RW discs, use a CD-R/RW
drive that bears the High Speed CD-RW logo. When using a CD-ROM drive to
read/play High Speed CD-RW discs, use a drive that supports CD-RW discs.
If these discs are used with a CD-R/RW drive not bearing the High Speed CD-
RW logo, the discs may not be recognized, resulting in the computer not
operating correctly or other malfunctions occurring.
