SATA Performance
I’m currently running Windows 2000 - AMD64 512MB on a MSI K8T NEO-FSR motherboard socket 754 K8T800, SATA/ATA with a Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 120GB S-ATA S-ATA/150 8MB cache 7200RPM. When I go to burn a DVD with my MSI DVD-burner IDE DR4-A, Retail DVD+R/+RW and DVD-R/-RW. This DVD is capable of x4 burns but because of buffer under run problems I can only burn at x2. I was wondering if anyone might have some good tips or tricks for fixing this problem. I assume my system should be fast enough to support x4 burns.
I know things like the DMA, and PIO modes for the IDE DVD, but as for SATA Hard Driver settings under Windows??? I don’t know if you can do those types of settings. This is my first PC with SATA. Any tips would be great.
