Any burner will read +R or -R, but this looks like it will only WRITE to +Rs and +RWs. If you look at the details, it says it is a dual-layer burner too?

Drive Speeds: 8x DVD+R, 4x DVD+RW, 2.4x DVD+R DL, 12x DVD-ROM, 24x CDR, 10X CDRW, 40x CDROM
Look familiar to what I just posted? Here's the link again: http://www.hookedonphonics.com/

Xenokai, Yes your question was very simple. We all answered it in simple terms but as flip stated you keep asking the same question. That computer only writes to +R media. Its in black and white in the specs for the computer. I don't care what HP's rep told you on the phone. They will tell you anything to sell the computer. It isn't going to change the specs on the computer. It burns +R blanks only, but will play back both formats. That should be the end of the story.

Xenokai,

I've already warned you about asking questions about this pc your getting. You've asked about your pc in almost every thread you've posted in. I also warned you about mulitposting. This was already answered by DogBomb in you other thread (the one closed by Nephilim).

I wouldn't have to make silly comments about hooked on phonics if you actually read the repies to your thread ... or should I just ban you for stupidity?
