Introduction
Features of the CRW8824S 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
Compatibility assurance data obtained through exchange of technical data with
major disc manufacturers ensures compatibility with discs from a very wide range
of 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 com-
plete fidelity even when writing at 8X speed.

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.
