FYI:
I bought two of these new Pioneer drives on the basis of the published
specs. My main interest is in DVD-RAM read speeds which are supposed
to be 12x. In fact the drive reads at 2x or 2.7Mb/s.
The drive is supposed to write at up to 18x. It writes a Verbatim
16x at an average speed of 5x. For reference, the Optiarc (Sony/NEC)
7170 writes the Verbatim disks at an average speed of 11.5x.
The machine is a Core 2 Duo 6700 with 2Gb of ram. I have enabled udma4
operation. The Pioneer is a huge step backward.
