I recently upgraded to a SATA dvd drive from an IDE DVD drive & expected a slightly higher rip speed. There really isnt an increase in speed & i'm trying to see if boosting my RAM will help make cd's rip faster.
What quality are you ripping at? Higher or lower quality? Are you running a lot of other apps too? Cuz you're probably gonna be able to rip as fast as you can, right now.
Nothing but the microsoft services but I dont exactly know what all those do so I dont wanna mess with them. I use 160 Kbps AAC. The highest I get up to is 29x
