Well! I know it's not by enableing it in Device Manager..Please tell me how and maybe it will work with my Creative...Please,Please I am Pleading. God I sound like I'm on my Knees. Don't make me BEGGGGGGGGGG
 
In the back of the drive there are pins for analog audio, and digital audio. There are some other pins which are undocumented, they are placed on the left of the digital audio ones, if you short them with a jumper, your drive will work in UDMA 33.

There must be a reason to do this. Why is it necessary? What is the default shipping setting? Maybe I have a performance problem and don't even know it.
Thanks.
 
i have a sony burner, and it has these pins "reserved" too....... if i short with a jumper, my burner will work in UDMA 33 ??????

this performance will be better ?????
 
I read it somewhere, for some reason Plextor uses that pins for testing UDMA 33, the default shipping setting is no jumper, that way there are no compatibility problems.

I don't know if it will work with the Sony, I just can say it worked with my Plextor. I do not think this could damage any drive.

So, has anyone benchmarked the difference between the unjumped and jumped configurations with say cdspeed, for example? Since pio mode 4 is more than enough bandwidth for the drive it seems that the udma mode wouldn't benefit you any. As for cpu utilization, isn't that a result of the dma setting in windows, which can be set to enabled with the drive running in pio 4 mode? Just wondering if its worth pulling my drive out of the box for this.
 
There is only an increase in burst rate transfer. It doesn't help very much, but it speeds the access to the cache of the burner.
