 Understanding CD-R & CD-RW - Recording Software
Packet writing records variable (CD-R) or fixed (CD-RW) sized chunks or “packets” of data to the disc for as many times as is needed to complete the writing of the user’s files.
Greater writing interchangeability for CD-RW discs is, however, one of the primary goals of the new Mount Rainier format.
The Mount Rainier specification was developed in 2001 to provide the framework necessary for computer operating systems to seamlessly rewrite data CD-RW discs in a drag and drop fashion without the use of additional drivers or software.

 packet
A packet (alternatively, datagram - the terms are basically synonomous, although in some contexts the two mean subtly different things) is the fundamental unit of information carriage in all modern communication networks.
A packet consists of a header, which contains the information needed to get the packet from the source to the destination, and a data area, which contains the information of the user who caused the creation of the packet.
The life of one connection will usually comprise a series of packets; in some network designs, they will not necessarily all be routed over the same path through the network.

Before the CD-MRW (Mount Rainier) can be used, the first thing that must be done is disc formatting.
However, one of the first advantages of CD-MRW (Mount Rainier) technology is that the formatting process can be completed in just 2 minutes.
In order to make this possible, initial formatting begins on the outer tracks of the disc so that it will remain “closed” and can be restarted even if it is removed before the formatting process has completed.

CD-MRW (CD Mount Rainier Rewrite) may eventually replace conventional floppy disk drives, as CD-MRW finally simplifies random read/write access to CD-RW media.
Writing to a CD-RW disc using packet writing requires that the disc be formatted first; this has taken a very long time in the past.
In contrast, Mount Rainier utilizes a block size of 2K, thus making better use of disc space and reducing the time required to copy files.
