- eco-product
SAMSUNG develops technologies to design eco-products, excluding harmful materials to human body, such as Pb, Cd, Cr+6, Hg, PBBs and PBDE for the protection of human health and the environment.
- magic speed
- Users can choose between maximum speed mode and low noise mode for the best PC environment.
- Low noise mode minimize a disc damage and reduce noise created while playing in high speed so gives stable PC environment.
- Also provide maximum speed by simple setting up.
- supports Mt. 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. This is done by 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.
- minimized data writing error
(buffer under run free technology)
- Buffer under run occurs in high speed writing, when writing speed is faster than data transfer speed.
- Buffer under Run technology prevents the buffer under run error so that enables multitasking on the PC
- Also enables high speed writing even in lower performance PC
- CD multi-read
Supports all CD formats reading and writing.
- Automatic ball Balancing System
- When rotation speed is raised sufficiently, the ball moves to the opposite direction of the center of mass and compensates the mass imbalance of the disc.
- By loading an ABS device onto the turntable of a disc drive, the vibrations and noise at high speeds reduces.
