What settings for my CD-RW drive?

Comment:

Should my CD-RW drive have a check mark in the DMA, Sync Data Transfer, and the Disconnect boxs for maximum performance? Thanks.

You should have a check mark in the DMA which will allow your burning process to bypass the CPU. Leave the rest alone.

Don't check DMA unless your MB supports it. Check the specs on it before you do.
