Both drives improved their reading performance with CD-R media. Philips is still faster than LiteOn, mainly due to the highest reading speed in the start.

HS-RW media: (Click to see the CD Speed Graphs)

For the RW tests we used the Mitsubishi Chemical HS-RW written at 10x. Lite-On LXR-24101A locked the reading speed at 16x throughout the test. The Philips drive is faster, although the drive had some problems while reading, as you can see from the CDSpeed graph.
