3. PINNACLE INSTANTWRITE
INTRODUCTION
Pinnacle InstantWrite enables you to use your Pioneer DVR-A05 DVD-R/RW drive just like a
hard disk or floppy disk. You can drag and drop files, create new directories right on your media
and even save files from your applications (e.g. word processing, drawing, etc.) directly to your
drive.

that supports DVD-RW, CD-R/RW, DVD-R and all UDF levels up to 2.01. Whether you're
copying your whole hard disk or just one small file, InstantWrite can do it fast and easy in the
same way as you would on your hard drive. Because InstantWrite writes the data in small
packets, no buffer under-runs can occur. Almost no additional space is needed so you can use
the entire disc capacity for data storage.
