- Procedure
We tested all five drives with latest version of Nero/CloneCD. We used various media for our tests: Mitsubishi Chemicals 74/80min 24x certified, Mitsui 74min 24x certified, Taiyo Yuden 74/80min 24x certified, Imation 80min 32x certified and Mitsubishi Chemicals/LiteOn HS-RW media.
We burned CDs at almost all recording speeds from 16x up to 24x using the same amount of data for all drives. Lite-On LXR-24101A reduced the supported writing speed when Ritek 80min 16x, Mitsui 74min 24x and Teac 74min 24x media were inserted, as Nero reports. The following picture is from Nero when we tried to burn Mitsui 74min 24x:
The posted recording times are the best we had from our test results. Using other media can increase the final burning time.
- 74min CD-R Tests
We tested the drive at 16x, 20x and 24x speeds.We created a "DataCD" job with data slightly more than 74mins (74:03:65). Although it is not fair to compare the performances of an external drive with an internal one, we give some writing speed results of some 24x CD-RW IDE drives.
Lite-On LXR-24101A showed a really bad performance in the recording tests. The drive seems to reach the maximum recording speeds late and as a result the burning times are significantly increased.
The picture below is from Nero when we burned Tayio Yuden 74min 24x media at 20x.
The best result at 24x also came with Tayio Yuden 74min 24x media:
