   There is no 'disc'.  Memory Disk is an H-P software package included with   
   (some?) computers.  I've never used it, but think it's designed to easily   
   store (your) media on CD or possibly DVD.  Never used it, but it loaded   
   itself (IIRC) and was a nuisance, so it was deleted (I thought) LONG AGO.
