When recording to a CD-R from a CD-RW Drive are you able to rewrite to the CD-R again?

Generally no. You can only rewrite on a CD-RW Disk. Cd-R Disks are one writes only. However, late programs out now allow you to close a session off when you make a CD. This allows you to add things to the CD-R. Although when you do this, it sometimes renders the CD useless until you close the whole CD off. Music CD-R's, in most cases, will not play until you have closed the whole cd off.

If you close the Cd-R and it doesn't work you just made a Cup Coaster. I have experienced this many times. they do not let you reburn the CD-R's I work with image software and instead of saving all the pictures to my hard drive I save them to CD-RWI use to save them to CD-R's until I found that you could not reburn them.
