6. Using the 48x Reading Speed (Turbo Boost Function)
with CD-ROM
The default CD-ROM reading speed of this drive is 40x speed. With a single touch, you can
activate the Turbo Boost Function, making the reading speed 48x speed.
CAUTION
• On rare occasions, some CD-ROM may not be able to tolerate 48x speed, causing them to
break. We recommend that you do not use deeply scratched, brittle, or other CD-ROM that
may break at 48x speed.
• The Turbo Boost function can only be used when reading data from CD-ROM.
1. Insert a CD-ROM into the drive.
The reading speed when you insert a CD-ROM is normally 40x speed.
2. Press the Eject button for five seconds.
The Busy indicator blinks twice and the CD-ROM reading speed switches to 48x speed.
(The Turbo Boost function is active.)
Note
When you open the disc tray, the CD-ROM reading speed reverts to its default to 40x
speed.
Note:
• The drive may make sound like “shahhh…” while starting up because of the balls in the
ABS (Auto-Balance System) spindle motor. It’s a normal state.
• When DDU1632 is used as a source drive in the “On the fly” copy, it is recommended that
the data transfer mode of DDU1632 and HDD would be set to DMA for no noise in the
copied disc.
• This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD)
standard. Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies
are marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are
some that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by this product.
