Transfer Rate Reading Tests
- CD Format
The Memorex F16 supports up to 48X reading speed for CD-R media and 32X for
CD-RW. Below are the transfer rate graphs, where we compare its performance
against the other two drives:



As we can see from our tests, the drive is much faster
than the other two drives with theCD-R media. This is something to be expected
since the Memorex drive supports a maximum reading speed of 48X while the other
two drives only go up to 40X. In the CD-RW reading tests, the Memorex proved
to be the slowest among the
three.
- DVD Format
With Single Layer media, the Memorex was only slighty faster while with Dual
Layer, the Pioneer
dominate although this is due to the difference in supported speeds.
With DVD-R/+R media, the Pioneer drives was once again the fastest
while with rewritable media the difference is negligible.
In our DVD ripping test with a pressed DL movie, the F16 had the fastest
tranfer rate and by a fairly large margin.
