There are so many different types of CD/DVD-ROM drive on the market that it is not possible, for reasons of time and availability, to test and provide specific support for every single CD/DVD-ROM drive. Nero can already identify a large number of common CD/DVD-ROM drive types, but providing support for all the drives available is not possible for the reasons given above.
For this reason, Nero has the Autodetect CD-ROM option on the Recorder menu for those people whose CD/DVD-ROM drive is not supported. Once the CD/DVD-ROM drive has been identified successfully, it can be used as an input device for CD fast copies and for saving tracks. This automatic detection process should in most cases allow the use of a drive which is not normally supported by Nero.
