Re: Accurate rip and slow reading

Accurate in EAC seems to be used mostly to ensure that the correct
read-offset correction value is set. If you know the proper value for your
drive then you've got no real need for AccurateRip.

You could try setting a drive speed to use for ripping, instead of
"current", and uncheck the box for letting the drive slow down. I found
that about 24x works OK that way on a Dell Optiplex.
