You may get better performance if you completely drop error corrections. These error corrections are however the whole reason to use cdparanoia: a 'perfect' copy is the aim. Since Audio-CDs were never designed to be read by a computer and to get the copy right is hard work. Additionally, your drive will do some --- or even a lot --- of error correction of it's own, so it depends a lot on the CD and the drive how fast you can rip. It has nothing to do with SCSI or IDE itself: even at 10x speed you can push the data faster over the bus than the drive can read them --- unless one of the busses itself is blocked or much used by other devices. -Wolfgang --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Paranoia homepage: http://www.xiph.org/paranoia/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to '[email protected]' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
