Prescan
A system can retrieve information from a hard disk much faster than it can from a CD. This is
one of the primary acceleration techniques used by CDT.
Select the Prescan icon to cache specific types of information from a CD to a
hard drive. Choose the types of information that will be cached.
Prescan File and Folder Information
Enable Prescan File and Folder Information to cache basic file information to
the hard disk. It significantly accelerates responses to requests for file infor-
mation from a CD. It also consumes the largest portion of the hard disk
cache.
General recommendations:
• This represents the best opportunity to improve overall performance of
CD-ROM drives and should be left on.
