Features of the CRW3200E Drive  
High speed writing/reading  
The CRW3200E drive supports up to 24X-speed writing for CD-R discs, and up  
to 10X-speed writing/rewriting for CD-RW discs. In addition, the drive  
supports data reading and digital audio data extraction at up to 40X speed.  
Tip  
The Partial CAV method permits 24X-speed writing for CD-R discs.  
The CLV method and the 4X 10X Full CAV method permit 10X-speed writing/  
rewriting for CD-RW discs.  
SafeBurn™ (Enhanced stability writing technology)  
The generous 8MB buffer memory provides sufficient data storage to enable  
stable disc writing at high speeds. Even if data transfer from the computer is  
interrupted, the Buffer Underrun Protection function is activated to save CD-R  
discs from a writing error. (P. 38)  
Optimum Write Speed Controladjusts the writing speed to the optimum rate  
for every CD-R disc automatically. You can set the maximum writing speed  
with your CD writing software.  
Note  
Optimum Write Speed Control can be activated when the maximum writing  
speed is set at 12X or more.  
The minimum writing speed to be automatically selected is 8X. Manually set the  
optimum writing speed if a writing speed supported by a disc is less than 8X.  
The CRW3200E drive supports extraction of digital audio data at up to 40X  
speed using CD writing software, as well as recording digital audio with high  
fidelity even at 24X-speed writing. For higher quality audio, the CRW3200E  
drive provides a digital audio output jack which can be connected to the sound  
card with an SPDIF (digital audio) input jack, if your computer has one  
installed, with an optional digital audio cable.  
Audio Master Quality Recording (High quality audio writing mode)  
Audio Master Quality Recording enables you to create high quality audio CDs.  
This mode is available for CD-R discs with a capacity of 650MB and 700MB.  
(P. 40)  
Note  
Audio CDs that are created with Audio Master Quality Recording may not be  
played back on certain audio recorders and CD-R/RW drives.

Precautions on Use  
Useable discs  
Discs that can be written on  
The CRW3200E drive can write on the following discs.  
For the latest information about discs previously checked for compatibility with  
the drive, refer to the YAMAHA CD-R/RW Drive website URL:  
CD-R discs  
The CRW3200E drive can write at 1X, 2X, 4X, 8X, 12X, 16X or 24X speed.  
CD-R discs can be played back on a CD-ROM drive or a CD player.  
Note  
24X-speed writing is enabled with Partial CAV method. (P. 6)  
Check the writing speeds your disc supports prior to writing.  
CD-RW discs  
The CRW3200E drive can write/rewrite at 2X or 4X speed.  
CD-RW discs can be read/played back on a device (e.g. CD-ROM drive)  
that supports CD-RWdiscs.  
Note  
Some discs support only 2X speed.  
High Speed CD-RW discs  
The CRW3200E drive can write/rewrite at 4X, 8X or 10X speed.  
High Speed CD-RW discs can be read/played back on a CD-RW drive  
that bears the High Speed CD-RW logo or a device (e.g. CD-ROM drive)  
that supports CD-RWdiscs.  
Note  
When using the packet writing method (P. 40) for writing/rewriting onto High  
Speed CD-RW discs, you can select the 4X 10X Full CAV method. For more  
information refer to the documentation that comes with your CD writing  
software. (Your CD writing software must support the Full CAV method, as  
does the CD Writing software that comes with the CRW3200E drive.)  
The Full CAV method is recommended when opening and editing a file on a  
CD-RW disc with an application.  
In order to write, erase, read or play back High Speed CD-RW discs, use a CD-  
R/RW drive that bears the High Speed CD-RW logo. When using a CD-ROM  
drive to read/play back High Speed CD-RW discs, use a drive that supports  
CD-RW discs.  
If these discs are used with a CD-R/RW drive not bearing the High Speed CD-  
RW logo, the discs may not be recognized, resulting in a computer not  
operating properly or other malfunctions occurring.  
Refer to the YAMAHA website below prior to attempting to read/play back  
these discs on a YAMAHA CD-R/RW drive not bearing the High Speed CD-  
RW logo.

Partial CAV (Constant Angular Velocity)  
The CLV (Constant Linear Velocity) method is generally used to write data on a  
CD-R disc. In writing using the CLV method, the disc rotation speed is adjusted to  
keep the data writing speed (data transfer rate) constant on all parts of the disc.  
In contrast, the CAV (Constant Angular Velocity) method exercises control so as to  
keep the disc rotation speed constant. Since the CAV method makes it possible to  
substantially increase the maximum data transfer rate without straining of the drive,  
it is adopted today for most CD-ROM drives.  
CD formats define the constant linear density of written data so that the amount of  
written data per disc rotation will increase as the writing point moves from the inner  
track to the outer track.  
With the CAV method, therefore, data is transferred at a higher rate when it is  
written on the outer tracks of the disc. To achieve 24X-speed writing, the  
CRW3200E drive employs the Partial CAV method, which is a combination of the  
CAV method for inner tracks and the CLV method for outer tracks.  
The Partial CAV method controls the disc rotation speed so that the CRW3200E  
drive starts writing at 18X speed on inner tracks, increasing the speed to 24X as the  
read/write head moves outward and holds the speed at 24X on outer tracks.  
Tip  
The CRW3200E drive supports 8cm discs.  
Note  
Use only circular discs. Do not use any irregular shaped discs such as heart-shaped  
or star-shaped discs to avoid the risk of malfunction.

Precautions on Use  
System Requirements  
The CRW3200E drive is designed to operate in the following computer  
environment. If your computer does not meet these requirements, the  
CRW3200E drive may not write at the maximum speed.  
Computer (PC/AT compatible)  
CPU: Pentium II-class or higher, 300 MHz or faster  
RAM: 32MB (64MB or more is recommended)  
64 MB or more is required (128 MB is recommended) for Windows 2000  
Professional, while 128 MB or more is required (256 MB is recommended)  
for Windows XP.  
An empty 5 ¼-inch drive bay (for installing the CRW3200E drive as an  
additional drive into the computer)  
Hard drive space  
Writing data on a CD-R/RW disc requires 50MB to 100MB of free space as a  
working area on the hard drive. When writing data on a CD-R/RW disc after  
creating an image file, there must be enough free space on the hard drive to  
store the image file in addition to the working area (a total of up to 900MB).  
However, hard drive space for image files is not required when directly  
writing onto a CD-R/RW disc from a hard drive or CD-ROM using the  
CRW3200E drive (on-the-fly writing).  
Image file  
You can collect the data files to be written on a CD-R/RW disc into a single image  
file.  
The image file is useful for writing the same data onto multiple discs. For details,  
refer to the documentation that comes with the CD writing software.  
Operating system (OS)  
Windows 95 (OSR2 or later), Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition,  
Windows Me, Windows 2000 Professional, or Windows XP.  
CD writing software  
The CRW3200E drive requires CD writing software to write onto a CD-R/RW  
disc. The CD writing software is included. If using other CD writing software,  
be sure that the CD writing software supports the CRW3200E drive.  
For details about installing and using the CD writing software, refer to the  
documentation that comes with the CD writing software.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Note  
The CRW3200E drive is set at slave by default. If you connect the drive as the  
sole secondary master, set the drive to master.  
If you connect an IDE device solely to an IDE cable, set the device to master and  
connect the drive to the end of the cable.  
If you start up the operating system from a SCSI hard drive, etc., there may be no  
IDE device connected to the primary. In such a case, Yamaha recommends that  
the CRW3200E drive be connected as the primary master.  
You may find that the IDE cable has one connector when you try to connect the  
removed device to another connector. In such a case, you are required to prepare  
an IDE cable with two connectors.  
You may have to change the master/slave setting to connect the removed device  
to another connector. For more details, refer to the documentation that comes  
with the device or refer to the manufacturers website.  
E-IDE  
E-IDE (Enhanced-IDE) is a standard for connecting computers to IDE devices such  
as hard discs, CD-ROMs and CD-R/RW drives. Most computers have two IDE  
connectors (primary and secondary). Each connector can be connected to two  
devices with an IDE cable.  
Two IDE devices connected by one IDE cable are called masterand slave.”

Connect an audio cable if necessary.  
The sound card of the computer enables you to listen to audio CDs played  
back on the CRW3200E drive. There are two methods to connect the  
CRW3200E drive and the sound card: analog connection and digital  
connection.  
Audio CD playback  
Audio is available from the headphones or speakers connected to the  
headphone jack on the front panel of the CRW3200E drive (this is  
convenient for the computer without a sound card). In such a case,  
connecting an audio cable is not required.  
An audio cable is not required to extract an image file from an audio  
CD since data is transferred via the IDE cable.  
If the CRW3200E drive is installed as an additional drive and the CD-  
ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive is already connected to the sound card,  
Yamaha recommends that audio CDs be played back by the existing  
drive.

Technical Notes  
Buffer Underrun Protection Function  
CD-R/RW drives are equipped with a buffer memory, which temporarily stores  
data that is being transferred. When the buffer memory becomes empty due to a  
delay of data transfer for any reason, a writing error happens. Such condition is  
defined as buffer underrun, and such an error is defined as a buffer underrun  
error.  
Buffer underrun protection is featured in the CRW3200E drive.  
When a buffer underrun almost happens, buffer underrun protection temporarily  
suspends the writing process. Writing resumes when enough data has  
accumulated in the buffer memory. Buffer Underrun Protection in the  
CRW3200E drive is extremely accurate, resulting in seamless recording before  
and after suspension.  
Test writing  
Test writing is a function to check for the possible occurrence of buffer underrun in  
your computer environment. The included CD writing software operates the test  
writing function that cannot operate when buffer underrun protection is activated  
(default). The buffer underrun protection should first be deactivated to use test  
writing.  
Writing Methods  
Disc-at-Once (DAO)  
This method is used to write all data onto a disc in one operation. It writes  
multiple pieces of data without placing a space between data, starting with the  
innermost track of the disc. Once data is written by this method, no data can be  
added to the same disc even if there is free space available on the disc. This  
method is useful for making a backup copy of an entire CD.

Technical Notes  
Track-at-Once (TAO)  
This method is used to write data on a disc on a track-by-track basis. A track can  
be defined as the smallest unit of area that contains an ordinary program, image  
file, text file, etc. This method enables you to add data to the same disc, one  
track of data at a time, as long as there is free space available on the disc. A disc  
that contains data written in several sessions is defined as a multi-session disc.  
An area that records data and management information (Lead-in/Lead-out) is  
defined as a session. Lead-in and Lead-out are signals written for stating the  
starting and ending points of one session.  
Note  
Ordinary audio CD players can only play back single-session discs or the first  
session on a multi-session disc. Do not record audio data on the second and  
subsequent sessions.  
Session-at-Once (SAO)  
This method is used to write data on a disc on a session-by-session basis. Unlike  
Track-at-Once described above, Session-at-Once enables you to record multiple  
tracks onto a disc at a time. CD EXTRA, for example, uses this method to write  
multiple pieces of audio data (or multiple tracks) in the first session and  
information required for computers in the second session. This method enables  
you to add data into the same disc, one session at a time, as long as there is free  
space available on the disc. A disc that contains data written in several sessions  
by this method is defined as a multi-session disc, like a disc written by the  
Track-at-Once method.

Packet Writing  
This method is used to record data onto a disc on a file-by-file basis. This  
method divides a track into small segments called packetsso that data can be  
written on a packet-by-packet basis, which means that you can write data in  
much the same way as you copy data to a floppy or hard drive. Since the data  
can be written easily, packet writing is proper to daily data backup. Packet  
writing also enables you to add packets to a disc as long as there is free space  
available on the disc.  
Note  
Discs need to be formatted for packet writing prior to use.  
Formatting a CD-RW disc using packet writing software reduces its storage  
capacity by about 100 MB since packet writing requires exclusive space for  
itself.  
For CD-R discs, deleting data means masking data but not actually removing  
data. Therefore, actual free space in a CD-R never be increased even if data is  
deleted.  
Audio Master Quality Recording (High quality audio writing mode)  
This method enables you to record high quality data that can be played back  
with the 1.4m/s linear velocity.  
Note  
Audio Master Quality Recording (High quality audio writing mode) is enabled  
with the 4X speed Disc-at-Once writing method.  
Maximum recording time is 63 minutes for a 650 MB CD-R disc and 68 minutes  
for a 700 MB CD-R disc.  
CD-MRW (CD Mount Rainier ReWriting)  
This method is a new standard of packet writing for a CD-RW disc and supports  
defect control by the drive, background formatting, and disc ejecting during  
formatting. It enables you to use a CD-RW disc like a floppy disk.  
Note  
Formatting a CD-RW disc using CD-MRW reduces its storage capacity by about  
150 MB since CD-MRW requires exclusive disc space.
