Introduction

Features of the CRW6416SX Drive

6X Speed Writing to CD-R, 4X Speed Writing to CD-RW and 16X Speed Reading
The CRW6416SX drive can write to CD-R at 6X, 4X or 1X speed and write/overwrite to CD-RW at 4X or 2X speed. It can also read from CD-R and CD-ROM media at up to 16X speed.
Supports a Wide Range of CD Formats
The CRW6416SX drive can read from and write to CD-ROM in standard ISO9660 format and to audio CD in CD-DA format. Use the drive for a wide variety of purposes, such as backing up data, writing your own audio CDs and creating multimedia titles (using CD Extra mode). Just choose the writing/reading format that suits your needs. For more details, refer to page 6.
SCSI-2 (Fast SCSI) Compatible
The CRW6416SX is compatible with SCSI-2 (Fast SCSI), the second-generation SCSI protocol for interconnecting computers and peripherals.
Windows 95/98 Plug and Play Compatible
Under Windows 95 or Windows 98, the SCSI ID number of the CRW6416SX can be set automatically. If there is a conflict between the manually-assigned SCSI ID of the CRW6416SX drive and the ID of another SCSI device on the same chain, the CRW6416SX is automatically assigned a vacant SCSI ID instead.
Supports all Four CD Writing Modes
These modes are Disc-at-Once (the disc is written in a single pass without pausing, as used for audio CDs and in premastering), Track-at-Once (data can be written incrementally to disc one track at a time), Session-at-Once (each session is written in a single pass without pausing), and Packet Writing (data can be written to disc in small increments just like with a floppy or hard disk). For more details, refer to page 27.

System Configuration

In order to use the CRW6416SX drive, your computer system will need to meet the following set of requirements.

Computer

The minimum system requirements for using the CRW6416SX drive are as follows:
Any fully PC/AT-compatible computer.
A Pentium-class CPU running at 133MHz or faster. (200MHz or faster
recommended.)
n Macintosh users will require a 68040 or PowerPC CPU and at least 16MB of memory.
OS: Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT4.0 with Service Pack 3/4/5.
n Macintosh users will require System 7.5.3 or above.
A spare PCI slot for a SCSI card (if one hasn’t been installed yet).
A SCSI card to connect SCSI devices (including the CRW6416SX) to your
computer. Make sure it has a half-pitch 50-pin D-sub external connector. Yamaha recommends any of Adaptec’s AHA-2940-series cards (PCI slot).
n Many Apple Macintosh computers have built-in SCSI connectors. However, if your Macintosh
does not have a built-in SCSI connector, you will need to obtain a PCI bus SCSI adapter card. (Yamaha recommends Adaptec’s PowerDomain 2930U card.)
n For details about how to install the SCSI adapter card, refer to the documentation that came with it.
4
System Configuration

Software

The software requirements for using the CRW6416SX drive are as follows:
CD writing software. This software must support the CRW6416SX drive for
writing to CD-R or CD-RW.
n For details about how to install and use the software, refer to the documentation that came
with it.
n Please verify the settings for your system setup (hardware, OS, etc.).
When temporarily storing data on hard disk prior to writing to CD-R/RW,
you will need an extra area of 50 ~ 100MB free hard disk space in addition to the amount used by the data itself. So when storing an image file of an audio CD on hard disk, a 74-minute disc (which is about 740MB of data) will require a total of 790 ~ 840MB of free hard disk space. However, this extra area is not needed when directly backing up from CD-ROM.
n Data is written to disc much more reliably when writing from an image file, eliminating the
likelihood of errors occurring. Furthermore, this solution is ideal when making multiple copies of discs since the original data is backed up to hard disk as an image file.
5
System Configuration

Media

The CRW6416SX drive is compatible with discs which meet the following specifications:
CD-R discs:
Use discs that conform to the Orange Book Part 2 standards. When writing to CD-R at 4X or 6X speed, you should use discs that have been designed for high-speed recording.
CD-RW discs:
Use discs that conform to the Orange Book Part 3 standards. When writing to CD-RW at 4X speed, you should use discs that have been designed for high-speed recording.
Read-only discs:
You can read from any CD-ROM discs that conform to the Yellow Book standard, and which bear the logo. You can also play back any CD­DA (audio) discs that conform to the Red Book standards, and which bear the logo.
n The Orange Book standard defines how all recordable discs (including CD-R and CD-RW) are
written. Part 2 of the Orange Book standard relates to CD-R discs and Part 3, to CD-RW discs. The standard was named after the color of the book’s pages. Similarly, the Red Book standard relates to audio (CD-DA) discs and the Yellow Book standard relates to CD-ROM discs.
About CD-ROM
A CD-ROM disc is a compact disc containing high-density read-only data. It has many applications, including the playback of music and video, the archiving of data, as well as on-line documentation. The following are descriptions of each CD-ROM format:
CD-DA: Up to 74 minutes of audio is written in 16-bit resolution at a sampling rate of 44.1kHz.
Data CD: Up to 650 megabytes of computer data is stored in standard ISO9660 format.
Video CD: These hold movies in which the video and audio data has been compressed using MPEG-1 technology.
