CD-MRW (CD Mt. Rainier ReWrite)
The CRW-F1 also includes the new industrial standard CD-MRW (CD Mount Rainier
ReWrite) which will sooner or later replace the standard diskette drive altogether as
the CD-MRW finally permits a CD-RW to be handled just like any other exchange
medium.
The essential functions are:
- formating in the background
- CD ejection possible at all times
- logical 2K addressing when writing
- physical error management by the drive.
CD-RW Audio Track edit mode
The CD-RW is also gaining in popularity as a data carrier for audio data. YAMAHA
has realised this feature exclusively included in the CRW-F1 to enable audio tracks
recorded on CD-RWs to be edited without requiring the entire CD to be deleted. This
permits individual audio tracks to be added to or deleted from the CD-RW – at up to
24x speed.
SafeBurn
YAMAHA has created a safety standard in the form of SafeBurn technology which
represents a triple safety combination ensuring 100% safety and therefore the very
best quality of your data when burning CD-R/RWs. SafeBurn comprises:
- Buffer underrun protection
For avoiding spoiled CD blanks when the data flow to the recorder is
interrupted. The laser notes the last position imprinted and continues from
there as soon as the data supply recommences from the source drive.
- 8 MB buffer
Guarantees constant writing at high speed. The advantage of this generous
buffer is the fact that the buffer underrun protection included in SafeBurn only
acts in emergencies when the internal data flow to the recorder is interrupted.
- Optimum write speed control
This function permits the CRW-F1 series to automatically select the ideal speed
for the CD blank inserted in the event of the medium being unsuitable for
higher speeds.
Service
The exemplary Yamaha service offers a 48-hour advance exchange, a two-year
warranty and a competent, toll-free hotline.
