Can you change documents on disk? Can you erase a disk?

No, this a burn once type. You would need it to say RW to erase and reburn. This is not that type.

Actually, everyone that has answered this question already is correct up to a point, once you copy something on to these discs, you cannot erase it off, but until you finalize the disc, you can put stuff on to it today, then wait a week and put more stuff on until you fill it completely up. Then you finalize the disc and it's now readable in any computer if it's data, or any DVD player if it's a movie or pictures. The DVD+/-RW will allow you to change documents, add, and erase, but you will only be able to use it in the computer you start putting stuff on it with. As with these discs, the RW's can be finalized and then be read on any computer and DVD player.

Windows XP and Windows 7 will let you format a standard DVD+R disc and make it read write. After it is formatted you can read make changes to file and write back to the disc. I don't know if this is the same as buying DVD-R/W disc, but it works.

if you format disc like a usb drive you can add documents or delete documents or pics or data or songs or copy from disc to hard drive and so on

John, this disk are only readable once written to them only. what you are looking for i believe is DVD+RW, the W makes them erasable and write to them as long as the disk does not get damaged. Hopefully this answears your question.

There is a manual on the disk that comes with it. If you don't have disk call the support line they are extremely helpful. They helped me with some questions I had.

Yes you can change the paper size settings on the physical unit and in the remote software from your computer. I have one of the custom settings in the software permanently set to legal size, which makes it quick and easy to switch back and forth.

Is there any software on the internal memory that will be erased if I format the drive?
2112567
I haven't used the software that came with the device. But you should be able to right click on the drive and select "Format" to wipe the HD.

Yes, - it has to be reformatted. It's easy - my non-tech sister just did it.
545222
Yes you can. There's multiple options at your disposal, such as Synology Data Replicator.

I never had to use a disk. You just plug it in an it will give you an option to transfer data to the new HDD under the memory section of your console settings.

Deborah ---I don't know the answer to that question. I have never tried to reformat a disk with the external USB A Drive. But, originally when an A drive was an internal part of an older computer disks could be reformatted using the internal A drive. All I can say is give it a try. Bev

No, use your manufacture drive tool , third party software or simply reformat existing drive

Unless you are skilled in disassembling a notebook, you should not try to change the drive. I changed the drive on my MacBook Pro with great difficulty but it's possible.

Yes, you must change. In addition you have to change all connected IDE-ATA devices to SATA connection and remove the floppy drive.

No you can't overwrite automaticly you have to erase them manually. I can only use a video monitor to see the menus and setup. Have not been able to connect it to my pc.
