Generous
8MB Buffer Memory top
While
other manufacturer's drives with buffer underrun protection
system carry only 2MB of buffer memory, Yamaha has kept
the tradition of generous buffer memory even after adopting
the buffer underrun protection system.
An
8MB buffer, four times larger than that of competitors,
minimizes the incidence of buffer underrun in cases where:
- The
CPU of the host PC is not fast enough.
- Other
applications are running while writing.
Buffer
Underrun Error Protection top
The
Buffer Underrun Protection packaged in SafeBurn completely
eliminates buffer underrun errors. If data transfer is delayed
and memory in the buffer drops to a critical level, recording
is suspended until the buffer has regained sufficient memory,
after which the writing restarts virtually seamlessly from
the point where it was suspended.
Yamaha's
Buffer Underrun Protection has made "the ultimate accuracy
of linking" a reality for the following reasons:
Virtually zero link
Data gap length is under 1µ (Not measurable).
Optimization of laser
power
Yamaha's own digital signal processor
controls the pickup to maintain the laser power and adjust
its temperature during the suspension of writing. This makes
it possible to resume recording with optimum laser intensity,
while ensuring the difference from the original laser power
is minimized to its limit.
Optimum
Write Speed Control top
The
Optimum Write
Speed Control function automatically adjusts writing
speed to the optimum level for each kind of disc, and removes
user concerns about recording speeds and the CD-R disc's
compatibility. Simply by setting the writing speed to maximum,
the recorder checks the characteristics and conditions of
the inserted disc and automatically selects the maximum
optimum writing speed to ensure data reliability when the
disc is read back by CD-ROM drives or CD players.
