What Affects System Performance
How well your computer functions with the CD-Writer Plus drive,
particularly how fast it writes data to a CD, depends on a number of
factors. Some of these factors are listed below.
Processor (CPU). The type and speed of your processor greatly affects
the speed at which your computer transfers data to and from the CD-
Writer Plus drive. If the processor speed is too slow, you may have to
write at 1x speed.
RAM. Your computer must have enough memory available to handle
its operating system, the CD-Writer Plus drive's applications, and the
data you are transferring to and from CDs. The system should not
have to swap data to and from the hard drive.
Your Hard Drive. The speed at which your hard drive accesses and
transfers data (its access time and transfer rate) affects performance.
Newer hard drives, those with a storage capacity greater than 528 MB,
are fast enough to handle the CD-Writer Plus drive's 2x write speed.
Parallel Port Type. The type of parallel port on your computer has a
major influence in determining the speed at which your CD-Writer
Plus drive runs. Possible parallel port types are:
Most PCs shipped since January 1995 contain support for the
required high-speed EPP and ECP modes. Systems shipped before this
date may only support SPP.
What Affects System Performance
Standard parallel port (SPP) which is sometimes called bi-
directional or compatible
Enhanced parallel port (EPP)
Extended capabilities port (ECP)
