    True or False: Macs currently can burn Blurays out of the box.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Macs currently cannot burn Blurays out of the box. While Mac computers have the capability to read Bluray discs, they do not come with built-in software or hardware to burn data onto Bluray discs. To burn Blurays on a Mac, users would need to purchase external Bluray burners and third-party software specifically designed for this purpose. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    True or False: Items inside of a burn folder are aliases. If the original changes before you burn the folder, the burn reflects the updates and changes.

    A. True
    Explanation
    The given correct answer is true. When items are placed inside a burn folder, they are represented as aliases or shortcuts to the original files. If any changes are made to the original files before burning the folder, these updates and changes will be reflected in the burn. Therefore, the burn folder ensures that the latest versions of the files are included in the burned disc.

    Which characteristic describes a DVD-R?

    • It's a Single Layer Disk

    • It's a Dual Layer Disk

    • You can record multiple times on the same disk

    • It's smaller than a normal CD or DVD

    Correct Answer
    A. It's a Single Layer Disk
    Explanation
    A DVD-R is a type of DVD that can only be recorded on once, making it a single layer disk. This means that once data is written onto the DVD-R, it cannot be erased or rewritten. Unlike a DVD-RW, which allows for multiple recordings, a DVD-R is a write-once format. Therefore, the correct answer is "It's a Single Layer Disk."
