RW Writing Tests
We used Nero 5.5.3.0 for writing CDs in maximum RW writing speed for all the tested drives in 10x HS-RW media. Both drives support fully the HS-RW writing standard:
The AOpen CRW1632 leads this test with lower time than Ricoh MP7163A. The AOpen also seems to have lower erase time than the Ricoh drive.
- Packet Writing Tests
We used Ahead InCD v2.26 for all Packet Writing tests. We used TDK HS-RW media and we formatted it. The formatted disc revealed 530mbs of free space. We copied a 403 MB file (403.147 kbs) from a Hard Disk (on the same PC as the writers) to the formatted RW media-using explorer (we dragged and dropped) we completed the test twice to eliminate possible time measurement faults and user errors:
The results showed that the Ricoh MP7163A is slower than the AOpen CRW1632 in both reading/writing performances at the packet writing mode.
