Drive Performance Differences

[tangible]

I am surprised by differences in CD ripping performance between two systems I have, and wonder if anyone can explain it, or offer a possible fix to look for.
Both systems are running WIN7 Home, have 4-6GB RAM and SSD system drives.
On one system I have an LG BH10LS30 BluRay writer and it might get 1.3X
On the other I have a Matshita UJ-8A8 DVD-R and it gets 2.5X

Specs don't seem any real different yet the first system (workstation) is slow as a dog. The second system (laptop) blows it away. In all other functions, the workstation is quite a bit faster than the laptop.

I'd prefer to do the ripping on the workstation but not at real time.

Any clues why the difference, or ideas for a fix? Thanks in advance!

Re: Drive Performance Differences

1x and 2x are very slow, are you using EAC in secure mode?

There's a reason you're omnipotent, SPOON.

Yes and yes.
I will try not running secure mode.

But I still don't get why the speed differences between the systems.
It's better than double. Your reliability tables (thank you, BTW) indicate differences in the low percents, not hundred percents.

Re: Drive Performance Differences

The advice is to burst in EAC and only do a T&C if AccurateRip did not verify. This is a manual operation (and considering you are posting here: fully automatic in dBpoweramp)
