for mac unibody owners:when burning cd's dvd's

i'll never move my mac except on sleep mode.

 

IMHO, i think even if you don't have a unibody mac, it is not advisable to move your laptop while burning a cd... even a person will hava a hard time writing something while moving..

 

unibody or not, you shouldn't be moving a computer while burning.

oddly enough, i accidentally did this just last night. i forgot i was burning something and i carried the computer from my room to the living area. thankfully nothing wrong happened.

 

i think that's a general statement that applies to any notebook with burning capabilities.

 

thanks for the heads-up

 

I think this is a general rule-of-thumb for ALL computers with CD writers, not just Unibodies.

 

ow i use to do this all the time. i should put a note beside my macbook hehe

 

hmmm.. how about when the optical drive is in use,not necessarily burning a disc,just accessing the disc?is it safe to move it around? i remember the xbox360 cannot be moved around when there's a disc inside coz it scratches the disc. baka lang its similar for all disc reading gadgets...

 

Thanks for the heads up man.. I don't normally move my MB even if it's in sleep mode. I turn it off whenever I put it in a bag. I burned a lot of Audio CDs with this machine and so far so good. I've got a sturdy table here..
