TEAC CD-540E


TEAC CD-540E:

In todays comparison the CD-540E seems to be slow with a maximum reading  speed of 40x. But the drive is interesting for a test, because it is the fastest CD-ROM drive of TEAC and therefore, with a good performance,  it can compete with other faster high-speed drives of Cyberdrive & co (Test of the Cyberdrive 482D CD-ROM). Before we start with the test, we introduce the features and delivery complexity of the CD-540E:
