HS-RW Writing Tests

We used Nero Burning Rom for writing CDs in the maximum RW speed. optorite DD0203 supports 10x maximum rewriting speed.

The Optorite finished in 7:58 minutes, and needed 30 seconds to perform the "quick erase" task with Nero. Sony DRX-500UL was slower with 8:44 minutes.

- Packet Writing Tests

We used InCD and Ricoh HS-RW media for all Packet Writing tests. The quick formatting of the media takes 30sec. The formatted disc had 530mbs of free space. We copied a 403 MB file (403.147 kb) from a Hard Disk (on the same PC as the writers) to the formatted RW media through the Windows explorer (drag and drop) :

The Optorite DD0203 gave an average writing speed of 7.8X and is slower than the Sony drive while the Pioneer DVR-A05 is ranked at the third place with 5.6X. In the reading part, the Optorite drive is the fastest among the rest drives with 7.6X.
