| 43144 | 2002-04-10 19:43:00 | Have just had a CD burner fitted an ACER 24x10x40 with PRASSI PrimoCD PLUS software, (another great learning curve)can anyone help,I'm a little confused over speeds, like what speed should I use to copy an audio cd, and what speed is best for a data cd |

I have found no difference between audio and data speed. I always use 8x even though I have 12 and 16 available. The CD media is also a factor - sometimes it prohibits speeds greater than 8x. Unless you are impatient, I would stick to 8x regards Marty |

If copying data onto a CD though, I usually go for the slower speed of x4 again. At x4 650mb will take about 18 minutes. Another point which applies to this system at least is to defrag before you start burning. |
