When ripping CDs to mp3 with dAP 9a, I noticed a significant difference between my CD-RW drive and my DVD-RW drive.
The DVD-RW (Plextor PX-708A - for CDs it has 40x/24x/40x) is about 50% FASTER than the CD-RW drive (Plextor PlexWriter PX-W5224TA - 52x/24x/52x).
Anybody have any idea why? CD drive should be faster than DVD drive according to specs. Both are setup as master drives, each on their own IDE channel (CD on IDE1, DVD on IDE2). No other drives connected on IDE channels (I use SATA harddrives). CD has drive letter W:, DVD has drive letter V:.
Just wondering if anyone knows why this may be?
