Hi,
I can verify that any CD-R or CD-RW drive can do it. I have a client who has
one of the infamous Yamaha 6416s. It appeared to back up to CD-RWs just fine
but then we couldn't restore from them when we needed it most: hard drive
failure. Luckily, I tried restoring from the same CD-RW discs on my personal
CD-RW drive and had no problems.
Mark.
