FileForums - PS1 backups with my CD burner

It's been a long time since I've made backups of my PS1 games for use on my modded console and I'm pretty sure I used my CD burner to backup Suikoden II in the past. However, I can't remember which software I was using or which write method.

My CD burner supports burning at x1-x4 but can't burn with RAW DAO (only DAO, RAW SAO, RAW SAO+SUB and TAO) According to my research I shouldn't have been able to make successful backups without RAW DAO. :confused:

My questions are therefore:

1. Would it be technically possible to burn a backup PS1 game using my CD burner?
2. If so which write method should I be using?
3. Which software should I be using?
4. Will any of the above change if I am burning protected PS1 games?
5. Is there anything else I should watch out for burning my PS1 games with this burner?

Here is a system info report from Alcohol 120% on my CD burner:
