Test Results - Access Time
Although Mitsumi talks about 110 ms average access time, we measured 167 ms with CDX. Modern CD ROM drives require approximately 90 ms for average data access, making the Mitsumi writer a less suitable candidate if you are looking for something to replace your good old CD ROM reader.
