What to do .... DVD-R or DVD+R ?

Archived from groups: 24hoursupport.helpdesk,alt.sys.pc-clone.dell (More info?)

I've dug myself into another hole ... trying to determine whether my
Dell Inspiron 8600 CD/DVD burner can handle all possible DVD
combinations: DVD + DVD - double-sided double-layer ???

Dell manuals and google of little help, except to explain how each
differs from the other.

The manual online clearly states what it can do...

DVD+R and DVD+RW.

if you download `belarc advisor` and do a system check with it , you would
find out what CD|DVD burner you have, `cos Dell don`t make their own. You
could then gather the info you want. best wishes..J

Nero Info Tool says my DVD drive will also write to DVD -R and -RW but
not -R DL.

I'll try it with a disc soon.
