Clone CD, How Long Should It Take to Backup 1 CD..
 

Im new to clonecd, just installed the demo version today. While trying to make a backup copy of a 700mg full disc, ive noticed that it is really really slow. The burn process goes fast, but the actual read process is ridiculous, according to its own estimates, it will take around 2 hours to backup 1 cd???


My 2 drives are;


Writer: Philips DVD+RW-D01


Reader: Samsung DVD-ROM SD-616T

You are probably trying to copy a Safedisk game - these have hundreds of read errors near the start of the disk (sectors ~800-10000). If you read the FAQ in the PC Games section you can read up on this topic. One solution to speed up the reading of the read errors is to use Daemon Tool's 'Fast Dump' feature.
Also, Alcohol 120% will be able to read the disk faster as it incorporates fast dump like features.
