For experienced personal computer users, it will not be difficult to write a file or folder to disk, but beginners can face a number of problems with this.
First, it must be said that it is possible to record information on CDs, DVDs and other discs only with the help of special software. Some users try to just copy the folder to disk, but in the end it turns out that it still remains empty.
Operating system recording
It is worth noting one significant nuance, which is that, on the one hand, these actions are correct, since modern operating systems have a built-in function for writing information to disk. To do this, you need to not only copy the folder, but also click on a special button, which is located in the top menu "Burn to disk". After clicking, a window will open in which information about the disk itself and the files that will be recorded will be indicated. After clicking on the "Record" button, the corresponding process will begin. Its duration directly depends on the amount of information that will be recorded and on the speed of the drive.
Recording with optional software
For reliability, you can use special software, such as the Nero program. It has huge functionality, good information processing speed, due to which writing information to disk will take much less time than if you use the previous version. This program is very easy to learn and understand the basic principles of work. After starting Nero Express, a special window appears, on the left side of which the user can select the type of information that he will record, and on the right side select the type of disc to which will be recorded. After the user installs a blank disc in the drive, starts the program and selects the appropriate data type, a new window will appear where, using the "Add" button, it will be possible to add files and folders for recording. The main feature of this program is that after each new fragment added by the user, the volume remaining on the disk will be shown. Thanks to this feature, you can calculate the approximate amount of memory occupied by folders and files, and write down the most necessary ones (if there is not enough disk space). Then you can click Next and select Press Burn. At the end of the procedure, the information will be written to disk.
Of course, there are many analogues of the Nero Express program. For example, one of them is Ashampoo Burning Studio Free. Unlike the previous representative, this program has fewer opportunities, but it fulfills its direct obligations with a bang. It is worth noting one small drawback of this program, which is that it is rather slow when launched, and in addition, it needs to be registered on the site. ImgBurn is another good representative of this "fauna". The features of this program are almost identical to Nero Express, but, unfortunately, its interface is poorly organized, which means that inexperienced users can simply get confused.
