YAMAHA SPEED
16X Write
World's first-top speed, writing a 74-minute
CD in under five minutes. when you start to use Yamaha's 16X record
speed, you will wonder how you got by without 16X. There is no time to
make a coffee or surf the net while waiting for your CD to be burnt!!
10X ReWrite
CAV (Constant Angular Velocity) mode carries
the ReWrite speed from 4X to 10X, enabling smoother access to data. So
don't use CD-R discs for your temporary backup; go straight to CD-RW and
ReWrite as you like - it saves space, money and the environment.
40X Read /Audio Ripping
40X max (CAV), extracting a 74-minute audio
disc in about 3 minutes. This fast and accurate audio ripping capability
gives you satisfaction in creating compilation audio CDs, making your PC
a virtual music jukebox with a lot of MP3 files, etc. |
FEATURES
Partial CAV Writing to
CD-R
This is a breakthrough in CD-R technology. The
CRW2100 series supports 12X-16X Partial CAV writing to CD-R media,
enabling significant increase in the data transfer rates while
minimizing the load increase to the drive's mechanism and maximizing
writing quality. Also, this P-CAV mode is useful for on-the-fly,
disc-to-disc copying because most CD-ROM drives use CAV."
Pure Phase Laser System
Yamaha's Pure Phase Laser System eliminates
unwanted reflections and glare produced when recording a CD, and
stabilizes the laser power, resulting in more accurate recording and
reduction of jitter (deviation from correct signals) by 25%, ensuring
high recording reliability even at high speeds. Both your audio and data
recordings will be of a higher quality, and there is less risk of
non-compatibility in CD ROM playback."
Optimum Write Speed Control
Even though the CRW2100 has very fast
recording capability, it still has to check the media is up to the same
fast speeds of recording. Before writing to CD-R, CRW2100 checks the
media's capability and automatically selects the optimum writing speed,
to improve reliability.
8MB Buffer
Generous 8MB buffer, double that of earlier
models, virtually eliminating buffer underruns. |

CAV in Fixed Packet Writing (10X ReWritable not supported in TAO/DAO)
Partial
CAV Writing to CD-R |
Writing to a CD-R disc is normally done
using CLV (Constant Linear Velocity) method. In this method, the disc
rotation speed will be so adjusted as to keep a constant data transfer
rate at any portion of the disc. In other words, the disc rotation speed
will vary in CLV writing.
In contrast, CAV (Constant Angular Velocity) method uses a constant disc
rotation speed at any portion of the disc whereas the data transfer rate
will vary. Because CAV method has an advantage to largely increase the
data transfer rate with a minimum load to the drive's mechanism (compared
to CLV's rotation speed adjustment), many of current CD-ROM drives use CAV
method. CD formats define the constant linear density of written data
(data should be written onto the disc track in the constant pitch) so that
amount of recorded data per disc rotation will increase as the writing
point moves from the inner to the outer. In other words, in CAV writing
the outer portion has an increased data transfer rate.
The CRW2100 series uses CAV method in the inner portions as well as CLV
method in the outer portions (Partial CAV) in order to enable up to
16X-speed writing while pursuing high-quality. The drive will control the
disc rotation speed to start writing at 12X speed in the inner portions,
gradually accelerating up to 16X speed and maintaining 16X speed in the
outer portions.
