CLV stands for Constant Linear Velocity, and means that the disc is read/written at a constant speed.
So manufacturers started tweaking the relationship between their drives' constant linear velocity (CLV) and constant angular velocity (CAV) functions, and have thereby pushed rewriting up to 8X and 12X.
It's remarkable 48X write speed enables a full CD-R to be burned in less than two and a half minutes, and because veloCD utilizes the Constant Angular Velocity (CAV) method of writing to disk, unlike drives that use Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) technology, CD recording performance is smoother, with less chance of write errors.
6X to 16X speed and reads the remaining one-third of the disc at 16X speed using Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) technology.
PCAV combines the best of Constant Angular Velocity (CAV) and Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) to provide the fastest possible data transfer to offer maximum data transfers from any place on the disc.
256KB Buffer Combines With PCAV to Provide Leading Data Transfer Rates To achieve these industry leading transfer rates, the drive features a 256KB buffer and Partial Constant Angular Velocity (PCAV), which combines the best of Constant Angular Velocity (CAV) and Constant Linear Velocity (CLV).
PCAV combines the best of Constant Angular Velocity (CAV) and Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) to provide the fastest, maximum data transfers from any place on the disc.
The controller supports both Constant Linear Velocity (CLV) and Constant Angular Velocity (CAV) implementations.
