Chapter 1 Product Information

This chapter describes the hp dvd-writer dvd100i internal drive and is organized as
follows:

Product History

CD Technology

The first CD technology to be used with computers was CD-ROM, a read-only
technology. In the early 1990’s CD-R (CD-Recordable) drives became available to
consumers for storing data permanently on a disc that could be read by any
CD-ROM drive. Now Compact Disc ReWritable, or CD-RW, technology is available to
consumers. CD-RW lets users rewrite CDs up to 1,000 times. CD-RW lets users easily
store and erase data on CDs for playback on:

■

MultiRead-compatible CD-ROM drives

■

CD-R drives

■

CD-RW drives

DVD Technology

A DVD disc is the same size as a CD, but holds much more data.
A DVD disc holds 4.7 GB per layer, which equals 135

minutes of compressed video. .
The DVD logo is trademarked and owned by the DVD

Consortium.

What is MultiRead?

Hewlett-Packard Company played a principal role in the creation of MultiRead
technology that makes CD-RW media read-compatible with the spectrum of current
drives:

■

CD-ROM (Compact Disc-Read Only Memory)

■

CD-R (CD-Recordable)

■

CD-RW (CD-ReWritable)

■

DVD-ROM (Digital Versatile Disc-Read Only
Memory)

■

DVD+RW (Digital Versatile Disc-ReWritable)

The MultiRead logo on CD and DVD products indicates MultiRead compatibility.

The cable is a 40 conductor (stranded 28 AWG) flat ribbon cable with female header
type connectors. The maximum cable length is 18 inches. The female header type
connectors that connect to the drive has a plastic extrusion on the side of the
connector by pins 19 and 21. This allows the cable to correctly mate with the key
slotted shroud connector on the drive.

Discussion of References

Several of the references listed in the preceding section are still in the process of
being revised. This section provides help in understanding how the references should
be followed.

The underlying specifications for CD-R/RW devices are presented in the
specifications from N.V. Philips and Sony Corporation. These specifications are
followed in order to obtain the right to use the “Compact Disc Recordable/
ReWritable” logo. These specifications include CD-DA, CD-ROM, CD-ROM XA, CD-i,
CD-i Bridge, Multisession CD, CD-R, CD-RW, Enhanced Music CD, and Photo CD.

The drive conforms to the OSTA MultiRead specification and is certified as a
MultiRead device.

The drive will be used to support OSTA UDF file systems, and therefore implements
functionality to allow efficient UDF operation using commercial software.

ATA-2 is used as the base reference for the drive’s ATA interface. However, details from
the ATA-3 and ATA/ATAPI-4 references are incorporated to allow operation with the
higher level command set.
