How to burn 900 MB CD?

[PIRATA!]

you can burn up to about 1gb on a regular 700mb 80min CD all at ease with one of those Plextor DVDRW drives cost around $75. checkout newegg or tigerdirect

And how can you do that!?!?

Which Plextor DVDRW's are you talking about???

Thank you.

Hmmm, and AFAIK the resulting CD will ONLY be readable on the same drive or on another identical one....

...an entire new meaning to the word "portability"...

Feature is called GigaRec. This was introduced at Plextor Premium, a CD writer.

Later true Plextor drives support GigaRec too.

Remember Plextor dosn't manufactur drives anymore. Today that's OEM drives with a Plextor label.

Have a look for GigaRec at product manual.

Most drives should read GigaRec factor 1.2 (read 840mb data at 700mb media).

Of course reading is not guaranteed.

I'm using 'cdrecord driveropts=gigarec=1.2'

A average drive dosn't read GigaRec factor 1.4 (980mb data at 700mb media).

The same drive or on another identical one is required.
