My Creative Infra 52X (amazing how stuff just works out of the box in
Linux -- the most I needed was to link softly /dev/hdd to /dev/cdrom, and
add an entry in /etc/fstab; and that was for my old 4x. The 52x works on
top of that, OOTB) has an orange turbo button. The whine increases in
frequency when I hit the button and make the ilght green->orange.
Haven't particularly noticed any speed changes, though. But then I use it
only when the drive is already lagging due to some other problem.
Want me to rave about how the entire system was slow until I put the 2nd
hard disk from hdc to hdb, and then had to go change all references? (I
could make symlinks but I'd just end up with spaghetti in /dev. It's bad
enough without me contributing). The CDROM drive is on hdd.
