The modern hard drives normally contain large capacity. In
order to organize and utilize the capacity well, controller
card will manage the capacity in an idea for two-level
management: partition group and partition number. The
partition group is somewhat like the category and the
partition number is the sub-item in that category. By using
this idea, controller can have up to 26 categories; each
category has up to 26 partition numbers, total 676 (26x26)
partition numbers. To be a CD duplicator, each partition
normally holds 850MB and for DVD duplicator, it holds
4.8GB or 9.6GB. Under this management, the capacity on
hard drive would not be wasted and under the control of
our duplicating controller card.
After selection, each partition will have two letters to
represent such as AC, BD, etc. The AC means A group C
partition and BD means B group D partition. If you get a
40GB hard drive installed with the controller card, you
might have 42 partitions from AA to AZ and BA to BP.
There will be two groups in your hard drive: A group
contains 26 partitions and B group contains 16. The entire
configuration will be done automatically and you don’t
have to run special software utility to make these
partitioning. Be noted that this setting will disappear if there
is no hard drive installed.
6.1.24 HD to CD Write Speed (if HDD installed)
This setting controls the maximum CD writing speed of
writers when the hard drive is installed in the system.
Default setting is “MAX” which will use the highest CD
writing speed. Sometimes maximum writing speed will
cause higher failure rate that may be due to poor CD quality
