CD-RW - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Also, since the CD-MO was otherwise physically identical to "normal" CDs, it still adopted a spiral-groove recording scheme, which rendered it hard to use as a normal floppy or as a medium for repeated, small scale deletions and recordings. CD-MO Prior to the introduction of the CD-RW technology, a standard for magneto-optical recordable and erasable CDs called CD-MO was introduced in 1988 and set in the Orange Book, part 1, and was basically a CD with a magneto-optical recording layer. The UDF 1.5 file system allows CD-RWs to be randomly rewritten, but limits disc storage capacity to roughly 530MB. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/CD-RW   (786 words)

Review: Acer CRW 2010A CD writer Data on CDs is stored at a constant density per unit length of track over the entire disc, and so CAV disc transports are slower to read or write data to the inner tracks than they are to do the same thing on the outer tracks. CD burning software that supports a given burner's flavour of BURN-Proof probably won't even show you the "test write" option, that lets you do a dummy write run and see if the buffer empties or not. It connected to its controlling computer with the SCSI interface, of course; the very notion of IDE CD writers was, at the time, about as sensible as the notion of boats made out of iron used to be. www.dansdata.com /crw2010a.htm   (5058 words)

Howstuffworks "How do CD-RWs (rewriteable CDs) work?" To create a rewriteable CD (CD-RW), you need a dye layer that can be changed back and forth between opaque and transparent. The laser that reads the CD can detect the difference between a perfect mirror and an imperfection caused by a bump because of the difference in reflectivity. The surface of the CD is a mirror, and the bumps disrupt the mirror's perfect surface. electronics.howstuffworks.com /question655.htm   (377 words)
