I have about 700 disks I want to back up to a bank of hard drives and play them from there being indexed by CollectorZ movie database software.
What can I do to speed up the task? Do I need a better DVD drive, or is there a limit on the read speed from a store bought movie? Sure would be nice to speed this up. |
Well you could check to see if DMA is enabled in Device Manager, also what is your drive model some drives are slow readers.
You can also check your IDE Cables if they are 40 wire IDE Cables you can replace them with 80 wire IDE Cables this will help the transfer rate
