NicholasDWolfwood wrote:You guys have to be careful on which type of burner you get. There are DVD+R/RWs, and there are DVD-R/RWs. DVD+R/RW is the authoring version, where you can burn DVDs to watch in a DVD player. DVD-R/RWs are the General type, where you can actually burn files to a DVD, for example a backup of your hard drive. You can never get a DVD-R disk mixed up with a DVD+R burner, otherwise you risk destroying the disk and the drive.

Sony takes the risk out of buying a DVD recorder by bringing all the
popular formats into a single drive. The amazing new DRU-500A burns
DVD-R/-RW, DVD+RW/+R, and even CD-R/CD-RW discs.* Internal EIDE
drive includes an impressive, industry standard software bundle and is
compatible with Windows® 98SE/2000, Windows ME and Windows XP
operating systems. * DVD+RW and DVD-RW discs recorded on this drive
may not play back on some older or entry-level DVD systems. The write-
once DVD+R or DVD-R discs are more compatible for interchange with
other DVD systems. Please record responsibly. Before copying anything
onto a CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R or DVD+RW, please be sure you are not
violating copyright laws.
