The 630-MB drive has a data transfer rate of 300 KBps, an average access time of less than 380 ms, and a 64-KB internal buffer. Digital-audio output lets you play back 74 minutes of full-motion video from a 12-cm disk using video in CD format. You can also play your favorite audio CD while you're working in an application.
