Performance in CD WinBench 99
I tested the drives in CD WinBench 99 using a molded CD as well as two copies of it (on CD-R and CD-RW discs).
These links lead to the data-transfer graphs the drives have with different media formats; both devices have no problems reading the test discs.


The diagram above shows that the Samsung TS-H352 has a higher performance score than its opponent when working with any CD media type.


The next two diagrams show the data-transfer rates achieved at inner and outer tracks of the discs. The LG GDR-8163B is no worse than the Samsung TS-H352 here, so the higher performance score of the latter device must be due to its larger cache buffer.

The Samsung TS-H352 takes less time to access any of the three test discs. The results comply with the specifications almost ideally.
