Running burned/Backup Copy of NavTech CDs
Anyone here using a copy of the Navtech CDs for their CLK (or anything except ML) instead of the originals?
I want to make a copy of the originals so I don't mess up the real ones
Is there a special way I should go about recording them? Any special techniques? How fast or slow should I set the burn speed...
TIA....

Danny,
I use back-up CD's in my Nav unit, and I didn't do anything special; I use Toast for the Mac and just dupe the original CD. I've even traded with other folks and never had a problem.

Danny,
Sorry for the delay, as I've been busy as of late; I don't think it makes a difference, as long as you have enough RAM for a good buffer so that you don't get some "coasters". The speed doesn't make a difference as long as your CD writer has enough buffer built in, along with data check.

I just read somewhere that when someone tried burning the CD fast, that the COMAND system had some issues reading the disc, but when they reduced it to an 8X burn, the COMAND read it fine....
I made my copy via 12X burn... I'm not concerned about buffer under-runs... CDs are so cheap anyways...
Thanks for your help though...
