Features of the CRW-F1SX Drive
Advanced Audio Master Quality Recording (High quality audio writing mode)
Audio Master Quality Recording enables you to create high quality audio CDs that
can be played back beautifully on any compatible device including car stereos. In
addition, the data quality of your CDs can be preserved for a long time. (P. 40)
This mode is available for CD-R discs with a capacity of 650MB and 700MB.
DiscT@2
The DiscT@2 function enables you to burn texts/pictures on the data surface of a
CD-R disc. Writing software that supports the function is required to operate it. For
details about this feature, refer to the instruction for the writing software.
Note
• The function cannot be used with a CD-RW disc.
• Appearance of burned images such as pictures varies depending on the material of a disc.
High speed writing/reading
The CRW-F1SX drive supports up to 44X-speed writing for CD-R discs, up to 24X-
speed writing/rewriting for CD-RW discs, and up to 44X-speed data reading or
digital audio data extraction. The Full CAV method enables 44X-speed writing and
high fidelity stable writing at once for CD-R discs.
Tip
The Partial CAV method (P. 41) and the Full CAV method permit 24X-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. 39)
“Optimum Write Speed Control” adjusts the writing speed to the optimum rate for CD-
R discs automatically. The maximum writing speed can be set with CD writing software.
Note
• “Optimum Write Speed Control” can be activated when the maximum writing speed
is set at 16X 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.
CD-MRW (CD Mount Rainier ReWriting)
CD-MRW is a new standard of packet writing. Compared to the ordinary packet writing,
CD-MRW provides many useful functions such as background formatting. (P. 41)

Prior to connecting the CRW-F1SX drive to the computer, set up the following using
the dip switch of the drive.
G SCSI ID Number
G Termination
Dip switch
G SCSI ID Number
Each of the SCSI devices connected to the computer needs to be identified by its
own SCSI ID number from “0” to “7.” The SCSI ID number “7” is normally
reserved for the SCSI card. Therefore, assigning a SCSI ID number from “0” to
“6,” except for the ID numbers in use by other SCSI devices, to the CRW-F1SX
drive is recommended.
The dip switch of the CRW-F1SX has four switches, and use SW 1, SW 2, and
SW 3 (three switches from the left) to set the SCSI ID number. The switches are
set to ON when pulled down. Each switch set to ON counts each ID SELECT
number, and the sum total of the ID SELECT number determines SCSI ID number
as the SCSI ID table shown on page 13.

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 CRW-F1SX drive.
When 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 CRW-F1SX 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. When Buffer Underrun Protection of the CD writing software is
activated, the test writing function cannot be operated. Buffer Underrun Protection
should be deactivated to operate the test writing function.
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 disc.
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.
39

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 “packets” so 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 100MB 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
1.4 m/s linear velocity.
Note
• Audio Master Quality Recording is enabled with the 1X-, 4X-, or 8X-speed Disc-at-
Once writing method.
• Maximum recording time is 63 minutes for a 650MB CD-R disc and 68 minutes for a
700MB CD-R disc.
• Audio CDs that are created with Audio Master Quality Recording may not be played
back on certain audio recorders and CD-R/RW drives.

Technical Notes
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 150MB
since CD-MRW itself requires exclusive disc space.
Constant Linear Velocity (CLV)
The disc rotation speed is adjusted to keep the data transfer rate constant while
writing/reading data.
Constant Angular Velocity (CAV)
The data transfer rate is adjusted to keep the disc rotation speed constant while
writing/reading data. The Full CAV method employs CAV all through data writing/
reading.
Partial CAV
The CAV method is employed for inner tracks of a disc and the CLV method for
outer tracks while writing/reading data.
