2.1.2 Hardware
CD/DVD recorder that supports write-once and rewritable discs (MMC compliant, multiread
RW recorders, MRW (Mt Rainer) supporting recorder).
The majority of drives that support the Mount Rainier function are labeled "EasyWrite".
EasyWrite is a registered trademark of Philips.

2.1.3 Packet writing software
Although InCD can work with discs that have been formatted using other packet writing ap-
plications, it is incompatible with other packet writing software, which means that you will
need to uninstall this software before installing InCD. Before the installation starts, InCD
checks the installed applications and exits the setup procedure if it finds another packet writ-
ing program. A dialog box will draw this to your attention.
2.1.4 Discs supported
Write-once and rewritable discs:
CD-R, CD-RW, DVD±R, DVD±RW, DVD-RAM, BD-R, BD-RE, HD-DVD, HD-DVD-R
You can format write-once discs (R discs) using InCD and then gradually write to them ac-
cording to their capacity. You can also delete files, but this does not free up the associated
disc space. In contrast to RW/RE discs, it is not possible to reformat and then rewrite these
kinds of discs using InCD.
A DVD-RAM can contain different types of write protection (cartridge, media-specific write
protection, etc.). If the disc has this kind of write protection, it will have to be removed. Oth-
erwise it will not be possible to write to, delete or format the disc.
2.1.5 Disc formats supported
CD-MRW, DVD+MRW (standard CD-RWs or -DVD+RWs that have been formatted as
MRW (Mount Rainier reWrite) on a recorder with Mount Rainier support)
