How to remove discs when the disc tray will not open
Pressing the eject button will not open the disc tray when the computer
power is off. If the power is off, you can open the disc tray by inserting a
slender object (about 15 mm) such as a straightened paper clip into the
eject hole near the eject button.

Writing CD/DVDs
You can use the DVD Super Multi drive to write data to either CD-R, CD-
RW, DVD-R, DVD-R (Dual Layer), DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R (Double
Layer), DVD+RW or DVD-RAM discs. The TOSHIBA Disc Creator is
provided as writing software with this computer.

Turn off the power before you use the eject hole. If the disc is spinning
when you open the disc tray, the disc could fly off the spindle and cause
injury.
■ Please refer to the Writable discs, Chapter 2 for details about the types
of writable CD/DVD discs that can be supported by this computer.
■ CD-R/RW media cannot be accessed using the burn cd/dvd option in
Media Center.
■ To write data to CD-R/-RW media, use the TOSHIBA Disc Creator
feature that is installed on your computer.
When writing information to media using an optical drive, you should
always ensure that you connect the AC adaptor to a live power socket. It is
possible that, if data is written while powered by the battery pack, the write
process may sometimes fail due to low battery power - in these instances
data loss may occur.
