Asus 52X32X52X CD Writer
ASUS has worked hard to develop noise-reduction technologies and the results of
these efforts can now be seen in ASUS optical drive products. The ASUS QuieTrack Series
Successfully reduces noise without compromising performance thanks to ASUS AFFM and DDSS II
technologies. AFFM (Airflow Field Modification) all but eliminated the uneven airflow inside
ASUS drive resulting in quieter and more stable operation. The patented DDSSII (Double Dynamic
Suspension System) stabilizes the optical pick-up head, achieving more precise tracking while
reducing vibration and noise caused by high-revolution motors. In addition, ASUS has introduced
the world's first online firmware update tool inside the included burning software. By using this
intelligent tool, it will automatically remind you to update the drive firmware.
The result is ultimate reliability and performance for burning music,
data backups and smooth audio playback without the noise of competitors dirves.
And of course, ASUS patented technologies such as FlextraLink™ and FlextraSpeed™ ensure
that CD writing is fast and reliable.
