Introduction
Features of the CRW8824SX Drive
High speed
CD-R/RW discs can be written/rewritten at up to 8X speed. For example, an
audio CD (74 minutes/650 MB) can be created in approximately 10 minutes.
Data reading at up to 24X speed is supported.
CD TEXT support
CD TEXT is a capability that adds text data to an audio CD. Information such as
the song name or artist name can be recorded using writing software. The text
data on the disc you create can be displayed by a CD player that is compatible
with CD TEXT.
Wide compatibility
To ensure compatibility with a wide range of discs, technical data has been
exchanged with major disc manufacturers. 700 MB discs are also supported.
High-fidelity audio
Writing software can be used to extract digital audio data at up to 24X speed.
(This data can be saved in WAVE format in a Windows environment, or in AIFF
format in a Macintosh environment.) Digital sound can be recorded with
complete fidelity even when writing at 8X speed.
Reliable writing
Yamaha’s proprietary Pure-Phase Laser System
*1
improves jitter values
*2
to allow
the signal to be recorded accurately. In addition, the 4 MB buffer memory and
Running OPC
*3
technology further enhance reliability.
*1. Pure-Phase Laser System (patent applied for)
Technology that reduces phase interference of the laser beam, so that it shines accurately on the disc.
*2. Jitter value
An important measure of recording quality. This has been improved 25% compared with Yamaha models
not using this technology.
*3. Running OPC
CD-R/RW discs vary by manufacturer in their recording characteristics, and the laser output required to
write data differs by disc. Running OPC is technology that solves this problem by automatically adjusting
the output of the laser according to the material of the disc on which data is being written.
