DVD and CD Drive Speeds

[Tasneem2002]

Can somebody please tell me how to access the DVD and CD drive speds on my VGN-AR41M notebook? I've tried looking under the system properties and other various places for this information but I'm very disappointed that this information is not clearly accessible on the laptop?

Hi Tasneem2002 and welcome.

Try looking at the Specifications for your model here: -

You will need something like Nero CD-DVD Speed to benchmark your drive. Download it from here: -
