In Reply to: Plextools to write - EAC to read posted by Metralla on February 4, 2007 at 15:03:51:
Same philosophy as EAC, reads in secure mode, AccurateRip lookup, but slightly more advanced implementation.For example, it tries to vary the read speed on successive passes to improve the chances of a successful read.
Also, it is smart enough to disable the cache on Plextor drives using FUA.
In various tests, dbpoweramp seems to rip faster than EAC for AccurateRip discs on my plextor drive.
Plextools itself comes with a secure ripping mode that's supposedly as good as EAC - I haven't tried this.
