The steps below describe how to copy a disc using one drive. Click here to learn how to copy a disc using two drives.


Tips

  • To successfully copy a disc, your hard drive must have enough space available to store a temporary copy of the disc.
  • The Disc Copy project can be used to copy almost any unencrypted disc. Commercial movie discs cannot be copied.
  • For best results, select a target disc that is the same size and format as the source disc.
  • During a normal copy project, an attempt is made to correct any disc errors that are found. You also have the option to copy discs using RAW mode. In RAW mode, no attempt is made to correct errors.
