LG announces their latest writer, the GCE-8520B - 52/24/52

Via our friends from CDRLabs.com Kenshin, our forum moderator, found a news post in which LG announces their latest writer, the GCE-8520B. The drive will have 52x read/write speeds and will support the ultra-speed re-writing standard:


LG GCE-8520B Specs:

  • Data Transfer Rate: Max 7,200 Kbytes/S
  • Write Speed (CD-R): 8x, 12x, 16x, 24x, 32x, 40x, 48x, 52x CAV
  • Write Speed (CD-RW): 4x, 10x, 12x, 16x, 24x
  • Read Speed Max: 48x
  • Access Time: 100ms
  • Buffer Size: 2MB
  • Compatible Formats: CD-ROM Mode 1, CD-XA, CD-Audio, CD-Plus, CD-Extra, CD-Text, Mixed Mode, CD-I/FMV, Video CD, Photo-CD, CD-R/RW

    1. 52x, 24x, 52x CD-Rewriter
    2. "Mt.Rainier function", supporting drag & Drop CD copy
    3. Superlink, buffer underrun prevention technology


    • Notice that the specifications of the drive mention a maximum read speed of 48x while the text on the LG Electronics website mentions 52x, which is probably the correct read speed.
