How to use
Install the GTC2N into an available internal 12.7 mm slimline drive bay and connect it to the motherboard using a SATA cable and to the PSU if required. After mounting and connecting, power on the system and let the operating system detect the drive—Windows 10 should install drivers automatically. Use your preferred burning or playback software to read, write, or play supported discs. For archival burns to M-DISC, select M-DISC compatible media and follow your burning software’s options for archival/verification modes.
Usage recommendations
For long-term archiving, use certified M-DISC media and perform a verify pass after burning. When playing multimedia, enable Silent Play features in compatible software if available to reduce noise. Keep the drive in a dust-free environment and handle discs by the edges to avoid read/write errors.
