Can a DVD burner also copy blu ray disks?
DVD burners are not compatible with blue-ray disks. Only a Bluray drive is capable of handling Bluray discs.The term BlueRay is derived from the actual wavelength of the laser that is used in the burning process. This laser emits a Blue color as opposed to the lasers previous which use a laser in a wavelength that emits a red color. The actual Blue ray lasers are much finer ( like comparing a pencil tip to a needle tip) therefor the information written to disc is much more compact and as a result a normal laser can not read information written with a blue ray burner.

Two characteristics give a DVD more storage than a CD?
The DVD uses a different laser with a smaller wavelength, not the long wavelength red laser that is used for CD's. I believe the DVD laser is in the ultraviolet spectrum. Anywho, the smaller laser allows the DVD to have smaller "bumps" (which is what the laser reads). Since they are smaller, more can fit onto a disk. Also, DVD's can be 2-layer. Twice the data.
Can Bluray disc be recorded on like a DVD-R disc?
yes, but you wont get high definition quality
Is optical storage a nonvolatile storage device or a volatile storage device?
It is nonvolatile, if you turn off the computer, the disc is not erased. (if you have a dvd bluray or cd and you turn off the cd, dvd, or bluray player the songs or movie on the disc is not erased). It does not use electrons to store data, it uses grooves and bumps in the disc and is read with a laser
