    Hi,

    What the difference between quick and full erase of CD-RW (DVD+RW) disks? Which one is better, quick or full?

    Thanks.

    A quick erase merely erases the table of contents, while a full erase erases the entire disk (which is why it takes so much longer)
    As for which is better, If the disk contents are empty, then just re-using it would serve to erase the disk completely, so a quick erase is better, even for the disk-life expectancy.
