Automatically sort items by name, kind, creation date, or other criteria in ascending or descending order.
Rename items.
Create folders to store related items.
Move items stored on disk to organize them so they're easy to find and back up.
Copy items to other disks to back them up or share them with others.
Delete items you no longer need.
Mount and eject disks.
Write to, or "burn," CD-ROMs.
