DVD-RW in Jaguar?
Authored by: robarmo on Oct 01, '02 08:17:38PM

There are two different types of media being mentioned, but the basic principles are the same. They're both Re-Writable optical storage mediums at the end of the day. I wasn`t actually referring to hard-disk like functionality in my initial posting, although this feature would be useful. (doesn`t DVD-RAM allow this?) I know the Finder treats a CD-RW as a CD-R once it has been initialised, I just wasn`t sure if it allowed DVD-RW to be used and re-used as a DVD-R for back-up purposes (prior to a clean install of Jaguar). Backing up my Home to a single disc (4.29GB after initialising) is a lot easier than spreading it across a series of CD-RWs and Zip Disks!

Thanks for your help everybody.

Rob.
