I've read this several times and it makes no sense. UDF = Universal Disc
(though I have seen Data used) Format and is a formatting applied to
writeable optical media. NTFS is a formatting applied to fixed disks (i.e.
hard drives). Just as formatting a fixed disc in UDF is impossible, thus the
reverse is also true - you cannot format a removable disc either NTFS or
FAT.

Could you please post back and clarify what, exactly, it is you're
attempting?

Default DVD -RW ...CDRW

If you format a CD-RW/DVD-+RW media with Ahead's InCD (Nero) or Roxio's Drag
to Disk(DirectCD), then the media is in UDF format. UDF format is used so
that you read/write/rewrite files to the disks.

NTFS is a format that is used primarily for hard drives.

Unless you can tell me what else uses it, then "primarily" should read
'exclusively'.

Well, technically you can use NTFS on Floppy Disks and maybe Flash
drives, but I think those would fit under the same catagory as the
harddrive. I just had to post and say hi to Miss P
