1. Getting Started

24/10/40A drive. For those of you with PCs, the installation process may seem a bit

About this Manual
Please read this manual carefully and keep it handy for easy reference. Use the
manual for installation, operation and troubleshooting. See your dealer or call
Plextor’s Technical Support Department should your drive require service.
In this manual you should find all the information you need to successfully install,
operate and troubleshoot your drive. If you run into a problem that doesn't seem to be
covered , however, please contact us. (See “Appendix B: Technical Support” for the
different ways you can contact us.) You will be connected to our friendly, helpful
band of tech support engineers who know their stuff. What might seem like an
uncooperative drive to you could very well be a 30-second fix to them. But we will
never know unless you contact us.
Meet Your PlexWriter 24/10/40A
The PlexWriter 24/10/40A is a CD-ReWritable drive that provides professional
quality CD performance for writing, rewriting and reading.
What the PlexWriter 24/10/40A Does
The PlexWriter 24/10/40A writes to CD-R (recordable CD) media at up to 24X
speed, and it writes to high-speed CD-RW (rewritable CD) media at up to 10X
speed. (Naturally, the drive can also write to conventional CD-RW media at 4X
speeds.) It reads all CD-ROM and CD-R media at a maximum of 40X speed with an
average access time of less than 140 milliseconds. Maximum read speed of CD-RW
media is 32X.
Reliable writing is virtually guaranteed, thanks to unique circuitry that automatically
detects the type of media being recorded and adjusts the PlexWriter 24/10/40A to
provide the optimum laser power and length of burn. The PlexWriter 24/10/40A has
an EIDE interface that supports the ATAPI-4 command set, including special
commands for CD-R and CD-RW.
The PlexWriter 24/10/40A is fully MMC-compliant, supporting writing features
such as Disc-at-Once, Track-at-Once, Session-at-Once, and Multi-Session, as well as
variable and fixed packet writing. It also supports the UDF file system implemented
through packet writing.
