Hi-Speed USB
This drive supports Hi-Speed USB
(USB 2.0-compliant), which yields a
much higher data transfer rate than that
of USB 1.1. Connecting the drive to a
computer equipped with a Hi-Speed
USB connector or PCI adapter card
provides the highest possible drive
reading/writing performance
1) .
• You must connect the drive to a USB
connector that supports Hi-Speed
USB. (Your computer must be
equipped with a Hi-Speed USB
compliant PCI adapter or PC card.)
• The USB EHCI (Enhanced Host
Controller Interface) device driver 2)
must be installed on your computer.
• You must use a Hi-Speed USB
compatible USB cable. (One is
provided with the drive.)
When writing to discs
When you write to a disc, we
recommend that you set the writing
speed to match the transfer speed of
your USB 1.1-compliant product
(usually 8
× or less).
1) When using a DVD-ROM drive, the maximum
transfer rate of 10800 KB/s
2) The USB EHCI device driver is supplied with
currently available PCI adapter cards that
supports Hi-Speed USB. Microsoft also released
the USB EHCI device driver for Windows XP.
For details, contact your adapter dealer or
consult the Microsoft Corporation Web site.
