Recording Optical Discs
=======================
Passthrough recording (a.k.a., "burning") is not supported by Xen. Currently,
the only options for recording optical discs (e.g., CDs, DVDs, BRDs) in Qubes
are:
1. Use a USB optical drive.
2. Attach a SATA optical drive to a secondary SATA controller, then assign this
secondary SATA controller to a VM.
3. Use a SATA optical drive attached to dom0.
(**Caution:** This option may violate the Qubes security model if it entails
transferring untrusted data (e.g., an ISO) to dom0 in order to record it on
an optical disc.)
