Dear HTH,
Just some further notes. I can burn with control to 16x over the
speed from my Plextor 12/4/32 (which I have hooked up to an external cable
from the faster SCSI bus) to the Yamaha 44x24x44 (but not the Matashita) in
Disk at Once with Toast Lite 5.2.

I was told at OWC that I would have the option of being able to
burn a label with the Yamaha but the software for it was evidently not
included, though Toast Lite does show the option. Now that Yamaha has gone
out of the CDRW business, I wonder how to get hold of it.

Mark,
The DiskT@2 is likely NOT worth worrying about. The 'label' is actually
burnt onto the recording surface. So, if you have a couple of hundred meg of
data, the you could make some sort of label utilizing the other five hundred
meg of surface. If your CD is full, there is no room to burn the label. Once
I read the fine print, I lost interest in the DiskT@2 technology.
Concerning the single drive sessions <What piqued my
curiosity is that my first copies which were of program disk backups like
Disk Warrior went so fast and without a hitch at full speed in Disk at Once
using just the Yamaha (first you put the source disk in, then the program
asks you for the disk to burn on).> you recognize that you are creating an
image on your hard drive and then burning that image to the CD (at full
speed). As I said earlier, the Yamaha mechanisms that I have are able to
read audio at full speed. None of my other readers (including my Plextor)
can do that. Since you can (probably) read at 44X and then write at 44x, you
might try making a single drive 'copy' of the audio CD. This would probably
be faster than trying to do a two drive direct copy at some slower burn
rate. (The assumes that your 44X Yamamha can read audio at fully speed.)
BTW, HTH is short for Hope This Helps. :-) (Don't blame me, I didn't start
all these email abbreviations, it just use them. Being a writer, you are
used to spelling everything out . . .
