with a LASER and light sensor in the drive head.
Yes. Any type of digital data can be stored on a CD-R
Put it in a computer, and PRESTO.(I think):)
data is stored on a CD with etches every etch is a 0 every non etch is a 1.
They are used for reading data stored onto compact disks like music, photos, documents, and programs.
Anything can be burned as data onto a CD provided that the item(s) you are burning onto it fits. The items are burned onto the CD exactly the way they are on your hard drive, rather than converted such as an Audio CD, etc.
Magnetic
if there is nothing on it then you can burn files to it
Burning of a CD means that you laser write data onto the silver surface of the CD.
Because a CD was designed to hold more data.
Data that cannot be changed except at the source. Read only memory contains data that can only be "read" by the processor, or viewed in some way by the end user. When you use a R-CD to store data, for example, you cannot change it while it is on the R-CD. You can change the original source data and copy it onto the R-CD again. Read-Write CD's, on the other hand, allow data to be manipulated directly on the RW-CD.
MP3 format data can be stored on a CD and played back on any MP3 compatible CD player.
CD-rw are writeable cds. You can put music or data onto them.
