Benchmark - CDSpeed (Data CD - BAPCO Sysmark 2002 Disk 1)

Using a Data CDROM from BAPCO's Sysmark 2003 Disc 1 of 2 which has a length of 76minutes. We ran the Nero CDSPeed test and found that the average Speed is around 37X. At max it reaches a high of 49.17X. The seek times recorded are also slightly faster than the specification. Again we see low CPU utilisation.

In fact, in this test, while I am testing, I was opening up Photoshop and Frontpage retreiving some files and chatting on MSN with fellow moderator. This didn't affect the performance much. The Burst Rate at 1MB/s.
