Description
HP CD-Writer Plus 9340i C4492B 10x4x32 Internal EIDE ATAPI CD-RW Drive ABA
The HP CD-Writer Plus 9340i (product number C4492B) is an internal 5.25-inch half-height CD-RW drive. It attaches to a desktop PC's EIDE/ATAPI channel and records CD-R and CD-RW media. Its 10x/4x/32x figures are the CD-R write, CD-RW rewrite and read speeds. Like other ATAPI optical drives, it is addressed by the host as a packet device on the parallel ATA bus, so it shares a cable and master/slave arbitration with the other drive on that channel. The drive dates from the early-to-mid 2000s, when parallel-ATA CD recorders were standard desktop equipment, shortly before DVD writers and SATA replaced them. The carton for this unit is labeled option ABA and carries a recorded-software label.
