This test will measure the time it takes for a drive to eject, load and recognize a disc.
The time needed to recognize a disc depends on the type of disc.
For example a drive needs much more time to recognize a multisession disc than a single session disc.
The eject and load times should always be about the same regardless of which disc is used.
Example of test results:
| Disc | Eject time | Load time | Recognition time |
| 1 | 1.84 sec | 1.31 sec | 3.85 sec |
| 2 | 1.84 sec | 1.30 sec | 12.10 sec |
| 3 | 1.84 sec | 1.31 sec | 4.45 sec |
