[QUOTE="Kajaboss, post: 890399, member: 80168"] Hi all, this might seem a silly question, but I recently bought some TDK +RW DVDs to archive documents. The intention was simply to copy and replace the info put on the disk the first time with the updated folder. Here I had hoped my Mac would simply ask me if I wish to replace the existing docs with the new ones. However, the DVD onto which I have put the info is telling me that there is zero space available. (I have used up 3gb of a 4.7gb DVD). This suggests to me that the disc has behaved like a conventional R disc rather than a +RW rewrite-able one, and can only be used once rather than hundreds of times, as I had understood they should be. Am I missing something? [/QUOTE]
