DVD Speed and Performance
For video playback, an 8X DVD drive is our recommendation for minimum speed. DVD drives are available in speeds of 12X and higher, and obviously, the faster the drive, the better the overall performance.
NOTE: It is important not to confuse DVD speeds with CD-ROM speeds. An 8X DVD drive is much faster than a 52X CD-ROM drive, since the information is compressed much more on a DVD disc than it is on a CD-ROM disc, therefore it can be accessed and transferred at a veryt high rate. MPEG-2 compression enables DVD drives to store and deliver information faster than CD-ROM drives. For example, a 1X DVD drive can transfer data at 1250KB per second, which is equivilant to the transfer rate of an 8X CD-ROM drive.
Like CD-ROM drives, access time, seek time and buffer size are important factors in DVD drives as well, and play a crucial role in the speed of the drive. The lower the seek and access times, the faster the drive will retrieve and deliver the data. You will find that the standard buffer size for today's DVD drives is 256KB, however many include more buffer memory. We recommend the highest buffer memory that you can afford. It will make a difference.
