Tips for successful writing
-
Do not plug or unplug cables, such as the AC adapter or the power cord while the optical disc drive is writing data to a disc.
-
The writing process may take longer to complete than theoretically predicted because some apps write and verify data simultaneously.
-
Sony assumes no liability for any loss or damage of any kind arising out of writing failure.
