# wodim
> Command (aliased as `cdrecord` on some systems) for recording data to CDs or DVDs.
> Some invocations of wodim can cause destructive actions, such as erasing all the data on a disc.
- Display optical drives available to `wodim`:
`wodim --devices`
- Record ("burn") an audio-only disc:
`wodim dev=/dev/{{optical_drive}} -audio {{track*.cdaudio}}`
- Burn a file to a disc, ejecting the disc once done (some recorders require this):
`wodim -eject dev=/dev/{{optical_drive}} -data {{file.iso}}`
- Burn a file to the disc in an optical drive, potentially writing to multiple discs in succession:
`wodim -tao dev=/dev/{{optical_drive}} -data {{file.iso}}`
