drive!

Use the drive to create audio CDs, to back up data on your hard disk, or for whatever purpose suits your needs.

Introduction

Features of the CRW8824S Drive

High speed

CD-R/RW discs can be written/rewritten at up to 8X speed. For example, an audio CD (74 minutes/650 MB) can be created in approximately 10 minutes. Data reading at up to 24X speed is supported.

CD TEXT support

CD TEXT is a capability that adds text data to an audio CD. Information such as the song name or artist name can be recorded using writing software. The text data on the disc you create can be displayed by a CD player that is compatible with CD TEXT.

Wide compatibility

Compatibility assurance data obtained through exchange of technical data with major disc manufacturers ensures compatibility with discs from a very wide range of manufacturers. 700 MB discs are also supported.

High-fidelity audio

W riting software can be used to extract digital audio data at up to 24X speed. (This data can be saved in WAVE format in a Windows environment, or in AIFF format in a Macintosh environment.) Digital sound can be recorded with complete fidelity even when writing at 8X speed.

Reliable writing

Yamaha’s proprietary Pure-Phase Laser System*1 improves jitter values*2 to allow the signal to be recorded accurately. In addition, the 4 MB buffer memory and Running OPC*3 technology further enhance reliability.

*1 Pure-Phase Laser System (patent applied for)

Technology that reduces phase interference of the laser beam, so that it shines accurately on the disc.

*2 Jitter value

An important measure of recording quality. This has been improved 25% compared with Yamaha models not using this technology.

*3 Running OPC

CD-R/RW discs vary by manufacturer in their recording characteristics, and the laser output required to write data differs by disc. Running OPC is technology that solves this problem by automatically adjusting the output of the laser according to the material of the disc on which data is being written.

System Configuration

In order to use the CRW8824S drive, your computer system will need to meet the following set of requirements.

Computer

The minimum system requirements for using the CRW8824S drive are as follows:

Any fully PC/AT-compatible computer. A Pentium-class or higher CPU running at 200MHz or faster. OS: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 98 SE (Second Edition), Windows

NT4.0 with Service Pack 3 or later, or Windows 2000. RAM: 32MB memory, 64MB or more recommended. A vacant 5.25-inch drive bay for mounting the drive. A spare PCI expansion slot for a SCSI card (if one hasn’t been installed yet). A SCSI card to connect SCSI devices (including the CRW8824S) to your

computer. Make sure it has an internal bus connector. Yamaha recommends any of Adaptec’s AHA-2940-series cards (PCI slot).

Software

The software requirements for using the CRW8824S drive are as follows:

CD writing software. This software must support the CRW8824S drive for writing to CD-R or CD-RW.

For details about how to install and use the software, refer to the documentation that came with it.

When temporarily storing data on a hard disk prior to writing to CD-R/R W, you will need an extra area of 50 ~ 100MB free hard disk space. When creating an image file of the data on hard disk before writing to CD-R/RW, you will need as much hard disk space as the original data, plus an extra 50 ~ 100MB. However, this extra area is not needed when backing up directly from CD-ROM.

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.

Discs

The CRW8824S can record discs that carry the following logos.

CD-R discs

• The CRW8824S can write these discs at 8X*, 6X*, 4X, and 1X speeds.

• These discs can be played back in a CD-ROM drive or a CD player.

*Compatible with “Orange Book Part 2.” *When writing at 8X or 6X speeds, please use “high-speed writing capable” discs.

CD-RW discs

• There are two types of CD-RW discs: those that support write/rewrite speeds of 4X, 2X and 1X, and those that support only 2X.

• The CRW8824S can write/rewrite at 4X and 2X speeds on the first type of disc and at 2X on the second type of disc.

• These discs can be read/played on a device (e.g., CD-ROM drive) that supports “CD-RW .”

*Compatible with “Orange Book Part 3 Vol.1.”

High Speed CD-RW discs

• These discs allow writing/rewriting at 4X–10X speeds.

• The CRW8824S can write/rewrite these discs at 8X and 4X speeds.

• These discs can be read/played by a CD-RW drive that bears the High Speed CD-RW logo, or by a device (e.g., CD-ROM drive) that supports “CD-RW.”

*Compatible with “Orange Book Part 3 Vol.2.”

• In order to write, erase, or read these discs using a CD-R/RW drive, a drive bearing the High Speed CD-RW logo must be used. When using a CD-ROM drive to read these discs, the drive must be capable of reading CD-RW discs.

• If these discs are used in a CD-R/RW drive not bearing the High Speed CD-RW logo, the discs may not be recognized, resulting in the computer not operating correctly or other malfunctions occurring.

• Refer to the page at the URL below before attempting to read these discs on a Yamaha CD-R/RW drive not bearing the High Speed CD-RW logo.

URL: http://www.yamaha.co.jp/english/product/computer/

System Configuration

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.

System Configuration

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 stereo audio is written in 16-bit resolution at a

sampling rate of 44.1kHz (for a 74 minutes disc).
