Only discs used in Hi-MDmode can be used as a storage media.The playing time of atransferred track isdifferent from the timethat appears on yourcomputer monitor.This is due to a calculation discrepancy between the recorder and thecomputer.You cannot transfertracks that will fill upthe remainingrecording time on thedisc.• The minimum recordable time on a disc is normally 2 seconds in SPmode, 4 seconds in LP2 mode, and 8 seconds in LP4 mode. When youtransfer a track from your computer, the recorder needs a 2-second (or4- or 8-second) space for a track even if the track is under 2 seconds(or 4 or 8 seconds) in length. Also, the recorder inserts a 2-second (or4 -or 8-second) space in between tracks during transfer operation. Forthis reason, the recorder needs an additional 6 seconds (or 12 or 24seconds) for each track. This reduces the maximum recording time foreach track by 6 seconds (or 12 or 24 seconds) during transferoperation (in MD mode only).The disc sizedisplayed on thecomputer is not thesame as the disc sizeprinted on the disc.• The difference is due to the use of the binary system to indicate thedisc size on the computer and the decimal system to express the discsize on the disc and other recording media.
