4-2 Sharing CDs across Different Formats
Can I share a CD-RW disc?
Yes. You can share a CD-RW disc directly with someone owning another
CD-RW drive or with someone that has a MultiRead CD-ROM drive and
UDF reader software. MultiRead CD-ROM drives are a recent innovation
to CD-ROM technology, so while not all CD-ROMs are MultiRead, they
are available to users world wide.
Can I make a diskette with UDF reader software for someone
that has a MultiRead CD-ROM?
The instructions below will show you how to copy the Adaptec DirectCD
(UDF) Reader onto a diskette. When you have finished you will be able to
install the UDF reader onto computers with MultiRead CD-ROMs where
you want to read your CD-RW discs.
To copy the Adaptec DirectCD (UDF) Reader to a diskette:
1. Insert “Software Disc 1” into the CD-ROM drive. A menu will appear.
2. From the menu, click Explore the CD.
3. Double-click the CopyDisk folder and then double-click Copydisk.
4. Select the Adaptec DirectCD Reader option and follow the instructions.
How do I know if a CD-ROM is MultiRead?
Look for the MultiRead certification logo on the CD-ROM’s packaging or
users guide. The drive will be described as MultiRead certified or will list
CD-RW as supported media. You can also put a CD-RW disc in your CD-
ROM and see if it can read it.
What if I want to share with users that have standard CD-ROM
drives? (In Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT 4.0)
In general, you must copy your information to a CD-R disc to share it
with users that have standard CD-ROM drives. To accomplish this:
1. Insert your CD-RW disc in your CD-Writer Plus drive.
2. Copy all the information from the CD-RW disc to a unique location on
your hard drive.
3. Replace the CD-RW disc in your CD-Writer Plus with a blank CD-R disc.
4. Copy the information from your hard drive to the CD-R media using
DirectCD.
