CD-RW - A CD-ROM format that not only reads standard CD-ROMs, but can read and write CD-R disks, and also read and re-write CD-RW media. CD-RW media is more expensive than CD-R media, but it can be written to more than once in the same location, much like a hard drive or floppy disk on a computer. Standard CD-RW disks store up to 640 MB of data, similar to CD-ROM and CD-R disks. |
