To achieve a certain writing speed, you must use the appropriate media.
To achieve 48X CD-R writing speed you must use certified 48X media;
and to achieve 24X CD-RW writing speed you must use Ultra Speed
CD-RW media.
Remember:
•
Using Normal Speed CD-RW discs (that is, NS-RW media) you can
rewrite at 4X.
•
Using High Speed CD-RW discs (HS-RW media), you can rewrite at
10X.
•
Using Ultra Speed CD-RW discs (US-RW media) in this drive, you
can rewrite at up to 24X.
You can write to Ultra Speed CD-RW discs only on drives that support
this media. Drives that are capable of writing to Ultra Speed ReWritable
media, such as the Plextor PX-712UF, are identified by a “Compact
Disc ReWritable Ultra Speed” logo.
