LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 12, 2021 Posted February 12, 2021 That looks like a CD-R, you can't erase / format it. Use a new disc.
skid_marx Posted February 13, 2021 Author Posted February 13, 2021 lets say i theoretically already ordered a stack of blank cd-r's from amazon that are already out for delivery, after this old one was a dud. Would i still be able to write to them, even if only once?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 13, 2021 Posted February 13, 2021 Yes, unless your drive is broken, you should have no problem writing to them (subject to normal disc quality issues). Do not attempt to erase or format them before use. Take one out of the packet, fire up ImgBurn and try to burn that image again.
