|
CAUTION |
|
||
|
and the individuals that make illegal copies will be held |
||
|
|||
|
|
responsible for any copyright infringement. |
|
|
|
Using low-quality discs may lengthen the recording time |
|

|
|
speed. |
|
|
|
|
You can use the External SuperMulti Drive to playback music CDs, CDROM, CD-R/RW, or DVD-ROM discs, like a CD-ROM drive or a DVDROM drive. If your computer recognizes the [CD-ROM] icon designated to the External SuperMulti Drive as the ‘E:’ drive, insert a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM disc and access the ‘E:’ drive.
If you want to use this product to play a commercial DVD-Video title (“DVD title’)
nMost of DVD titles on the market use the Dolby sound system.
You are required to install software that supports Dolby decoding on your PC before you can play a DVD title using the drive purchased.
DVD Region Protection Coding (RPC)
The RPC feature is supported on DVD players and is used with DVDvideo discs (such as movies). Currently, the motion picture industry has divided the world into different regions or zones that correspond to the regional markets into which the motion picture industry releases movies. Simply put, RPC codes are placed on movies marketed throughout the world, based on the region of the world in which they are being sold. These RPC codes help control and prevent pirating of new movies into other motion picture regions prior to their true release dates within those markets.
The External SuperMulti Drive supports RPC phase II. In the RPC-2 mode, the local code can be changed by users. RPC-2 is selected by default for the External SuperMulti Drive.
You can change the region code up to five times via an MPEG application.
Please contact your dealer or local TOSHIBA representative if you wish to change the local code more than five times.

2.Block any outside attempt to access the host PC during a writing session.
An error may occur if another user accesses the printer connected to his/her the system via the network during a writing session.
3.Disable the CD auto-run feature of the CD.
Inserting an auto-run-enabled CD in to another drive connected to the same system during a writing/erasing session may cause an error.

4.It is recommended that you use the image file format when you write a large number of small-sized files.
When there are a large number of small-sized files to write, the system’s transfer rate drops and the Superlink feature works at a more frequent rate, resulting in lower writing quality.
If you are doing a CD-to-CD write, it is not necessary to check to see if you have available space on your hard disc beforehand.
However, in the case of image files, it is recommended that you be sure you have at least twice the amount of space on your hard disc needed for the data, as image files are copied to the hard disc before they are copied to the CD.
5.Do not use more than one type of writing software.
Before you install a writing program, be sure to first uninstall existing versions of the program or other writing program(s) and reboot the system first.
(The Windows operating system may be damaged if you install the
Korean version while the English version remains on the system.)
Use only writing software provided by TOSHIBA. You may NOTE experience writing errors if you use with other writing
programs.
The write speed for a disc can be restricted if:
1.The disc has bad properties data and/or there are other discs with different properties available under the same ID.
The drive’s write strategy is set in a way that allows the drive to examine the disc properties and determine the optimal write conditions for those properties.
For example, many disc makers do not include property information distinguishing 48X discs from 32X discs. Since the two types of discs have the same data properties, while having different write speeds, it is often impossible to respond to the situation with a single write strategy. In order to ensure stable writing, it is necessary to downgrade the write speed.
If discs from two different manufacturers are labeled as havings the same write speed, but actually have different write speeds, it is necessary to downgrade the write speed to ensure stable writing.

2.TOSHIBA’s Standards for Write Speed Restriction.
Standard 1: Write speed is downgraded for the sake of write stability, if high-speed discs available on the market have particularly bad properties data, or there are low-speed discs available under the same ID.
Standard 2: Speed-restricted discs go through further examination and adjustments later. If high-speed discs are available under the same ID with as low-speed discs (currently speed restricted), the speed restriction is removed when the low-speed counterparts are no longer unavailable on the market under the same ID.
You may experience lower write quality if you use discs made by manufacturers not registered with the product’s firmware. Therefore, it is recommended that you use only discs by recommended companies.
Even if the write session is completed successfully, check the write quality before you put the disc in storage, especially in the case of important data backups. (TOSHIBA is not responsible for any loss resulting from data backup failures.)
We will update the list of supported media on a regular basis through our firmware upgrades.

Nepokládejte výrobek na povrchy citlivé na teplo
nNepokládejte výrobek na dřevěný povrch, nábytek nebo jiný povrch, který by se mohl poškodit při styku s teplem, protože teplota základny výrobku a se během normálního používání zvyšuje.
nPokládejte výrobek na rovný a tvrdý povrch, který je odolný teplu.
Neumisťujte výrobek ve vlhkém prostředí
nNepoužívejte ani nepokládejte výrobek v koupelně nebo v jiném vlhkém prostředí, venku ani na místech, kde může být vystaven dešti, mlze nebo jiným zdrojům vody a vlhkosti. Mohlo by dojít k požáru nebo úrazu elektrickým proudem s rizikem vážného zranění. Mohlo by rovněž dojít k selhání počítače nebo ke ztrátě dat.
UPOZORNĚNÍ
Neumisťujte výrobek tam, kde by byl vystaven nadměrnému teplu
nVýrobek neumisťujte tam, kde by byl vystaven působení nadměrného tepla, například na místa vystavená přímému slunečnímu záření, do nevětraného vozidla nebo do blízkosti ohřívače. Mohlo by dojít k selhání systému, poruše, ztrátě dat nebo poškození produktu.
Neumisťujte výrobek do míst s extrémně nízkými teplotami
nVýrobek neumisťujte tam, kde by byl vystaven extrémně nízkým teplotám. Mohlo by dojít k selhání systému, poruše nebo ztrátě dat.
Nevystavujete výrobek náhlým změnám teploty
nNevystavujete výrobek náhlým změnám teploty. Mohlo by dojít ke kondenzaci a následnému selhání systému, poruše nebo ztrátě dat.
Nepracujte s výrobkem za bouřky
nNepracujte s výrobkem zapojeným do zdroje střídavého napětí za bouřky. Pokud uvidíte blesky nebo uslyšíte hřmění, okamžitě výrobek vypněte. Přepětí způsobené bouřkou může zapříčinit selhání systému, ztrátu dat nebo poškození hardwaru.

UPOZORNĚNÍ
nNeupusťte jednotku. Chraňte ji před velkými nárazy, které by mohly jednotku poškodit nebo způsobit její nefunkčnost.
nZacházejte s ní opatrně, aby byla ochráněna před vnějšími nárazy.
nNepohybuje jednotkou, pokud je v provozu a dbejte, abyste před zapnutím jednotky zavřeli všechny pracující programy. Vždy používejte tlačítko pro otevření.
nNestrkejte hrot do otvoru nouzového vysunutí, když je jednotka v provozu.
nNepoužívejte prasklé, zkroucené nebo poškozené disky, zejména disky s prasklinou na vnitřních stopách, které se mohou během používání zlomit.
nNeodpojujte napájecí kabel, když je jednotka v provozu. Mohlo by dojít k provozní chybě.
nNepokládejte na jednotku žádné těžké předměty.
nNepoužívejte nekvalitní disky (nelegální, poškrábané, poškozené, atd.).
nZabraňte vniknutí drobků jídla nebo cizích předmětů do pouzdra jednotky.
nAby nedošlo ke vzniku rizika požáru, zabraňte polití jednotky hořlavými kapalinami jako je alkohol nebo benzen.
nPřed použitím disku jej vždy zkontrolujte, zda není prasklý. Jestliže je na disku prasklina (obzvláště kolem středového otvoru), doporučujeme vytvořit si ihned jeho kopii a používat raději tuto kopii. Pokud by se prasklý disk nadále používal, velikost praskliny by se pravděpodobně zvětšovala s možným následkem nevratného poškození disku.
