I want to constantly burn then delete small files and folders on CD-RW. A message pops up saying that it is read only and that I can only copy files over it - not erase it.

UDF which takes forever to format and used MB of space just for the formatting process, allows deleting of files but is very impracticable. I used the Sonic burner program which came with my Dell Insp Joined Oct 28, Messages 1.

Blue Sky said:. UDF vs. ISO, or completely known as the ISO format, has been the primary file system format used for quite a long time. This is perhaps the most commonly used format for CD nowadays. This format is beneficial in the sense that all data burned using it is almost always guaranteed to be playable in all CD players, and can even be shared with either a MAC or a PC.

The UDF system also enables a more efficient writing process for CD recordable and rewritable disks, using its ingenious packet writing mechanism that frees more disk space, not to mention, significantly cuts down the writing time for disks.

Due to the fact that UDF has become the predominant format at present, there have been a lot of major revisions made, like the UDF 1. You can spot their different advantages, like the real stream support, and being able to burn up to 2 TB of data on the OSTA official webpage. If you want to play your audio or video recordings, then it is best to opt for UDF. Otherwise, you can just use the ISO system format if you are plainly recording data for back-up purposes, and not for audio and video playback.
