BCE 4012IM CD-ReWritable Drive

INTRODUCTION

BCE 4012IM is a half-height CD-ReWritable drive of standard IDE
interface. It supports maximum 40x speed writing ability on CD-R discs,
12x speed on CD-RW discs and 48x speed reading performance. The
drive backs up all writing modes and different CD formats and it
automatically recognizes the media placed in the drive, whether a CD, a
CD-R or a CD-RW. With the bundled CD-RW mastering software, BCE
4012IM is an ideal model for creating customized audio and data CDs,
and for archiving or distributing big files to achieve data interchange and
backup. Here are some important features of BCE 4012IM CD­ReWritable drive:

♦ 8X, 16X, 20X, 24X, 32X and 40X writing speed on CD-R media

♦ 4X, 8X, 10X and 12X writing speed on CD-RW media

♦ Adopts Buffer Underrun Prevention technology

♦ Supports MultiRead function

♦ Supports writing modes of TAO, DAO, SAO and packet writing

♦ Large internal buffer: 2MB

♦ Advanced dust-sealed design

♦ Low power consumption
♦ Firmware upgrade possibility via Flash Memory

System Requirements

INSTALLATION

Host Interface Connections

Most current mainboard models have two IDE ports (primary and
secondary) which can connect two IDE cables. Two IDE cables
allow you to connect up to four devices, but it is recommended that
you separate IDE ports for your hard drive and your CD-ReWritable
drive. This will ensure that your hard drive’s performance and speed
won’t be affected by having the CD-RW drive on the same cable.

If you connect only one device on the cable, you can set the jumper
as “master” or “slave”.

If you connect two devices (e.g. CD-ROM & CD-RW) on the same
cable, set different jumper for each device (CD-ROM as “master”,
CD-RW as “slave” and vice versa.) The same rule goes for the
connection of having your hard disk and one other device on the
same cable.
