I purchased an HP System Recovery Set. 

I want to make backups of the 5 disks. 

The original disks are 800mb CDs.

 

Will my BD-5850H5 drive make correct copies on standard 700mb CDs? 

If not, where do I find 800mb blank CDs?

Above all, how do I make backup copies of this recovery set?

Hi,

 

Are they CD's or DVD's  ? Please check this first.

 

1. From the following specs: Yes, it can write to standard 700MB/800MB CD's.

2. Most blank CD's can store 800MB actually. But if you wish you can try

3. I don't know you can copy them or not but any CD/DVD copy software can do. Nero is a good one.

 

Regards.
