Firmware
  • - = Any firmware version will work. However, the newest firmware version available is recommended.
  • Firmware >= x.x = Firmware version x.x or better is required
  • Firmware = x.x = The exact Firmware version x.x is required. Any other version WILL NOT WORK.
Best Write Mode
  • RAW-DAO 96 = 2352 bytes RAW Data + 96 Bytes P-W Subchannel Data. This is the best mode for CloneCD. It allows writing of all subchannel information, including Digital Signatures, CD-Text, ISRC, Catalog Numbers, CD+G, CD+Midi, Gaps, Indices and Crazy TOCs.
  • RAW-DAO 94 = 2352 bytes RAW Data + 94 Bytes P-W Subchannel Data. Same as RAW-DAO 96, but 2-Bytes CRC of the Q Subchannel are generated by the writer.
  • RAW-DAO 16 = 2352 bytes RAW Data + 16 Bytes P-Q Subchannel Data. This is the second best mode for CloneCD. It allows writing of most subchannel information, including most Digital Signatures, ISRC, Catalog Numbers, Gaps, Indices and Crazy TOCs. 2-Bytes CRC of the Q Subchannel are generated by the writer.
  • RAW-SAO = 2352 bytes RAW Data. This is the third best mode for CloneCD. Feature support is drive dependend. ISRC, Catalog Numbers and Indices can be written. Usually CD-Text, CD+G and CD+MIDI can be written as well. Crazy TOCs and Digital Signatures can't be written in this mode.
  • SAO = 2352 bytes error corrected Data. This is the worst mode for CloneCD. Writing of ISRC, Catalog Numbers, Indices and usually CD-Text is supported.
  • - = Writing to this drive is not supported. CloneCD will not recognize the drive as a CD-Recorder.
Buffer-Underrun Technology
  • = Drive offers a buffer under run technology like BurnProof or JustLink. This option can be controlled by the user.
  • = Drive offers Seamless Link buffer under run technology. Seamless Link is always enabled and cannot be switched off.
  • - = Drive does not offer any buffer under run technology
Correct EFM-Encoding
  • = Drive writes regular bit patterns correctly.
  • = Drive writes regular bit patterns almost correctly.
  • - = Drive does not write regular bit patterns correctly.
Best Data-Read Mode
  • RAW+96 = 2352 bytes RAW Data + 96 Bytes P-W Subchannel Data. This is the best mode for CloneCD. Reads all subchannel information like ISRC, Catalog Numbers, CD+G, CD+MIDI, Gaps, Indices, Digital Signatures.
  • RAW+16 = 2352 bytes RAW Data + 16 Bytes P-Q Subchannel Data. This is the second best mode for CloneCD. Reads most subchannel information like Gaps, Indices and most Digital Signatures.
  • RAW = 2352 bytes RAW Data. No Subchannel Data can be read.
  • - = Reading from this drive is not supported.
