Creating a Data Disc
Before you begin
If you plan to use a BD-R (write once) disc when creating a data
disc, you should consider whether you want the disc left open
(appendable) or closed (non appendable) at the end of a recording
session.
• To leave the disc open, choose the option I would like to use
discs for more than one recording. Selecting this option
allows you to record multiple times to a single disc. However,
fewer drives may be able to read the disc. Use this option if you
expect to make many small recordings on high capacity discs,
or if you do not need to share your discs.
• To close the disc, choose I only need to use discs for one
recording. Selecting this option allows you to record only one
time to a disc. However, a larger number of drives will be able
to read the disc. Use this option if you typically fill your discs
during a single recording session or wish to use the disc on
more than one computer.
