Speed Boost
AOpen is always devoted to provide the best and the most stable products to our
customers. The CD-R/RW drive reading speed is getting higher and higher, inevitably
the higher speed brings larger noise. However, we do not need so fast reading speed in
some situations such as listening to the music CD. Now, our new CD-R/RW drive comes
with a whole new feature that we call it “Speed Boost.” You could use this function to
speed up the reading speed when you need the faster reading speed.
The default reading speed will be 40x. At this reading speed, your CD-R/RW drive will be
very silent and the motor's life will be extended. If you need to increase the speed, just
press the Eject button for 5-7 seconds. The LED will be blinking two times. Then the
reading speed will be accelerated to the Max speed. After rebooting the system, the
reading speed will be back to 40X.
Note: Installing jumper
pins besides the ones for
device configuration
settings may be the cause
of damage or abnormal
drive operation.
