Creating Data CDs
You can create a new data CD or a multisession CD by appending data to an existing CD. In

CD.

1
write, and then click [Next].
Creating an Image File on Your Hard Disk

write, and then click [Next].

InCD
With InCD packet writing software, you can use CD-RWs as large data storage.
Using Windows Explorer, you can drag files to a CD-RW or directly save data from
any application to CD-RW (and delete it later, if necessary). Your CD-RWs become
as practical as floppy disks!
InCD only supports CD-RWs. InCD formats CD-RWs in such a way that they can be
used like floppy disks (i.e. files can be added or deleted from the CD-RW just as
with other rewritable media). You can therefore drag files to the CD-RW from
Windows Explorer or save files directly from Microsoft Word, for example. InCD
starts automatically when Windows starts, and the following symbols appear on the
Windows taskbar.
