Hey guys,

do you know how to slow down 10xDVD/40xCDROM drive ?

the DVD speed is OK, but the 40x CDROM speed makes a lot of noise when reading CD-ROMs and it's getting really annoying sometimes.

I also think that the spin down time is too long, I'm not sure how long though.

Any solutions ? hardware/software ?

thanks

Put extra screws. That would improve the situation.

Or put in a dedicated CDROM drive for reading CD's. Some DVD drives don't work well (as you've discovered) with other CD types.
