You're running Nero for linux? :-PSo ATA66 is about as fast as your hardware will exploit with two
drives on the cable. ATA100 reduces bus contention for "both rives
ready simultaneously"
Okay..okay.. This is VERY Off-track.. but maybe you guys can shed some light..
I just bought a CD-writer (52x24x52 attached as master on 2nd IDE channel - UDMA mode 2) and I've got 2 HD attached to the primary IDE channel. Both drives are UDMA5 on ATA100 (on a ATA133 capable M/B) Burning disc using Nero can't get me higher than 24x! The reason it's giving me is..transfer rate from source data is too slow. (I'm burning from a 120GB 8MB cache Master Drive. Slave is a 20GB 2MB Cache)
So.. what's up.. Running a disk transfer rate test saw my 120GB transferring at ~40MB/s.
So..what's up. Does the above holds true???
In order to get the maximum burn speed, you need fast media. What brand of CD-R are you using, and what's it's speed rating? If it's rated at 24x, that's the best you can expect to get.
