• Speed Boost Function

Just Link™ technology minimizes the write gap to only 2 microns.

Just Speed Technology
JustSpeed™ is the function that prevents writing error when high writing speed (24x or faster) is selected. When "Just Speed" is ON, the drive decides the most appropriate writing speed according to the result of medium calibration and writes with the speed. This function is changeable in "mode select command", and the default setting is "Just Speed" is ON.

Mount Rainier 

Mount Rainier enables native OS support of data storage on CD-RW. This makes the technology far easier to use and allows the replacement of the floppy. Having defect management in the drive, by making the drive 2k addressable, by using background formatting, and by standardizing both command set and physical layout, does this.  

Faster Speed
AOpen's CRW5224 CD/ReWriter drive offers unprecedented performance to handle today’s demands by reading CD's at up to 50X speed, writing CD-R disc at super 52X and CD/RW discs at fastest 24X speed. CRW5224 writes a 700 MB CD-R disc within about 2 minutes and half.

High Versatility
The CRW5224 is an ideal all-in-one solution for reading CD's, copying audio/software CD's, creating photo/audio/video CD's, or acting as a storage drive for archiving or backup. The drive comes complete with everything you need to make CD's right away, including bundled software and blank CDs. You can write and read large data files as easily as you would from floppies.

High Reliability
An improved anti-heat design and the OPC design boost recording reliability. Optimum Power Control continually monitors signal levels during recording and adjusts laser power to compensate for a dirty disc. This feature ensures a flat signal, significantly enhancing reliability.

High Compatibility
The CRW5224 supports all major CD formats, offering the user full backward-compatibility through the huge installed base of CDROM drives and media. What’s more, recorded CD-RW media can be played in a DVD player, maintaining future compatibility.
