New lite on 48x Speed!

CD, DVD and (Ultra HD) Blu-ray Writers LiteOn / PLDS / Sony Writer
#1

i checked on liteons website but i cant find any info on the new drive. i was wondering does anyone know what speeds this drive writes on cdr and cdrw?

#2

which 48x cdrw…there is a 48125W…it burns cds at 48x and cdrw at 12x…the have just announced a new 48 cdrw…48/24/48(48x cdr/24xcdrw/48x read)

#3

I think that should be 48x Read, 48x Write

AND 12X REWRITE NOT 24x REWRITE as stated by nealh.

It is called LTR4812S-YC30 according to this UK website but EBuyer do sometimes get the model numbers wrong !

Hmm. It dosen’t looks like valid LiteOn manufacture code.

Somebody IMO lost one digit (before S). It may be good old LTR-48125S or may be (there is small chance) LTR-48126S

Let me clearify…the current 48x is a 48125W…48 write/12rewrite/48x read… 5 series mediatek chipset

the new one due out is a 48x write/24x rewrite/48x read…it is based on the 6 series mediatek chipset

thanks for the replies, i was looking for the different write speeds not the max write speed. i have a butt load of 4x cdr and some other slower media. i was needing to know the specific speeds of cdrw and cdr.

thanks all

Oh…sorry …

misunderstood what you wanted…I will be getting the drive i nthe next couple of days and can give the different speeds

Nealh,

If I understood correctly, you would be getting the 48x24x48x. If this is true would you mind sending me the firmware in bin format?

I have a 32125W, currently overclocked to 48125W. I’m curious as to whether it can be overclocked to the new model.

TIA

Jeez…I am an idiot I should have been more clear…I am getting a 40125S(I hope from cendyne) …no I am not getting a 48/24/48…they are not to my knowledge available…theLiteon 5 series chipset cdrw will not take the 6 series chipset firmware as I understand it…the 48/24/48 will be based on the new mediatek 6 series chipset as I understand it

Nealh,

No issues. I was just curious.

Reg. the 5 vs 6 chipset, we can always hope :slight_smile:
