How are the 90 min cd-rs able to burn so much?
This unusual amount of storage capacity is made possible by the combination of
two methods:
1. Moving the tracks of the Helix closer together.
2. Using the over-burn mode which uses the full capacity of the CD-R beyond the
given specifications.
Are there any potential problems with using the 90 min cd-rs?
HARDWARE
800mb CDR media takes existing CD writing technology to the max - margin for error
has been reduced to almost nothing, so they can be more difficult to write than
normal CD-Rs.
You may not be able to use your writer's full write speed - in fact in most
cases, we recommend a slower write speed. Storage depends on the type of
drive you have. Not all drives will be able to write 90+ minutes.
Remember to check our compatibility lists
SOFTWARE
90+ Min CD-Rs require you to use software that allows you to over-burn.

releases at all times):

PLAYBACK
Playback of the 90Min CD-Rs on older readers may be slower, or not possible at all. Modern high
quality readers will work fine.
What if my drive doesn't work?
There are a number of things to check:
· Make double sure you have a compatible drive.
· Make sure you have the latest firmware.
· Make sure you have compatible software.
· Make sure you have selected "overburn" mode in the options.
· Make sure you are using DAO (Disc-at-once) mode.
· Make sure you have set the maximum capacity of the disc to the highest
setting.
· If burning audio, make sure you have selected "Audio CD" format. Selecting
"Data" format and burning WAV files may not work.
· Try writing at different speeds - some drives will only work on a particular
speed. Slower is not necessarily better - some writers will write at 8x, but not
at 4x, and not at 12x.
We take no responsibility and give no guarantee for any drive/software
combination on the compatibility of 90+ minute CD-Rs.
The only way to be 100% sure if they work on your drive is to try them out.
