- Reading Tests

To create an image of the various protected titles onto a hard disk, we used CloneCD v.4.3.2.2 software and the appropriate settings, depending on the protection type of the inserted discs. Below the capabilities of the Nec drive are summarized, according to CloneCD software. As you can see the drive supports writing of CD+G under RAW DAO:

The game titles we used for each protection scheme are given in the table below:

PSX Pressed Media

SafeDisc v.2

SecuROM v.2

CyberDrive managed to rip the contents of all test discs successfully and gave fast ripping values for SafeDisc v.2

- Writing Tests

The CyberDrive supports the DAO-RAW writing mode. For checking the drive's EFM correction status, we used 3 different game titles with different SafeDisc 2 versions having the latest software patches installed. After making the images of the various titles onto the hard disk, we burned them (maximum speed) with CloneCD. Two different discs were created for each title; one with the "Amplify Weak Sectors" enabled and one with this function disabled.

The table below shows the results of the attempted backups and whether they worked (game installed / played normally), or not.
