In addition, the drives are backward write-compatible with 8X, 5.2 GB and 4X, 2.6 GB MO and Continuous Composite Write Once CCW media. The new MO drive models feature Sony's buffering/caching algorithm (8MB S-cache) and fast SCSI interface. The drives provide a sustained data transfer rate of more than 6MB/sec, a maximum burst transfer rate of 20MB/sec, with an average seek time of 25 milliseconds..."
