William999 Posted June 21, 2002 Report Share Posted June 21, 2002 HL-DT-ST GCC4120B. This is one of the CD-RW/DVD drives sold installed in new 700mHz flat panel iMac's (the model below the iMac with the DVD-RW drive). Has anyone been able to successfully back-up to this device with Retrospect Express? When I perform a back-up the initial or first back-up goes fine, then on a second or incremental back-up Retrospect erases the CD without warning. An error message something like: media not recognized, erased! And it really is erased. There is no way the user can prevent it from happening. Retrospect erases the back-up CD when it attempts to write the incremental back-up. How frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lv2ski Posted June 21, 2002 Report Share Posted June 21, 2002 After this msg of erased comes up....try this. Go to Tools/Verify and see if you can verify the set. What error comes up then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesP Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 I have an FP iMac with this drive. If I use Retrospect Express to create a backup to a CD-RW, and if I immediately do a restore of a few selected files from that CD-RW, the restore works fine. If I then quit Retrospect Express and eject the disk, then start Retrospect Express again and insert the disk, Retrospect Express reports "content unrecognized" and cannot do a restore. What is happening, why, and can it be fixed? Yours sincerely, James Prescott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
