Nothing special by modern standards.. It's a BTC 321040 IDE drive, using the sg module on an Athlon 1.4 with 512Mb of ram.
Under windows it's win98se, and the supplied software (name escapes me) and under linux it's RH7.1 stock install and xcdroast that shipped with it... I've also used it to write 100 copies of a manual under RH7.2 on a Duron 900 with 256Mb and it ran fine at 24x, didn't try 32x on that machine. I was only writing 60Mb per CD so the time wasn't an issue. Took longer to unwrap, label and repack the CD's than it did to burn them. Cheers, Chris Hellyar. -----Original Message----- From: Rex Johnston >> OK, I'll bow to your experience of that problem, but I've never had a >> problem writing at higher speeds..
